My Wangtek 5525ES SCSI tape drive is running very well. The only problem
occured is the fact that the access LED on the tape is burning after the
first open of the device, and only swiches off after the 'mt off' command.
The device I use is /dev/rst0!

All this doesn't matter anything, but when the LED is burning after some
time a kernel 'device st0 timed out error' occured and sometimes the device
don't return any more after accessing again.

Is there anybody with the same problems?
