Whenever I try to write to a tape I get errors like: st0(ahc0:1:0): HARDWARE FAILURE asc:15,1 Mechanical positioning error and st0(ahc0:1:0): MEDIUM ERROR info:80 asc:c,0 Write error sks:80,1 I tried two different tapes (both can't be defect, one was new, the other was a used one) and both experience the same problem. I double and triple checked SCSI termination but still no go. The DAT is connected to an Adaptec 2940UW, I'm running a 2.2.2 kernel. The relevant messages are: ahc0 rev 0 int a irq 7 on pci0:11 ahc0: aic7880 Wide Channel, SCSI Id=7, 16 SCBs ahc0:A:1: refuses WIDE negotiation. Using 8bit transfers (ahc0:1:0): "WangDAT Model 3200 02.2" type 1 removable SCSI 2 st0(ahc0:1:0): Sequential-Access density code 0x13, drive empty ahc0:A:6: refuses WIDE negotiation. Using 8bit transfers (ahc0:6:0): "QUANTUM FIREBALL_TM3200S 300X" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd0(ahc0:6:0): Direct-Access 3067MB (6281856 512 byte sectors) Any ideas?
