As the device is conected to a sata port, I have tried:
dmesg | grep -i sata
ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 1 SControl 310) ata1: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps (The 2 above lines repeats hundreds of times)
But I'm not sure it has any connection to the tape drive.
Any ideas?
I haven't seen SATA tapes so far, but I guess it should behave the same as SCSI (as in: detect the drive, autoload the 'st' module). Can you show a bigger excerpt from dmesg from the area around the ata1 stuff above? Does anything change if you actually insert a tape?
