To get a better idea of what is happening, check `dmesg` for any messages regarding your tape-drive. You could also do `rmmod st && modprobe -v st` and check the output to the console and dmesg for any errors.
modprobe -v st shows: insmod /lib/modules/2.6.33-ARCH/kernel/drivers/scsi/st.ko
Finally, I'd find the path to your device in /sys and look in the modalias file. This needs to match one of the modalias expressions you see in `modinfo st`. A simple way to check this is to `modprobe -R <your modalias>`. It should tell you the name of the modules it matches with.
/sys/class/scsi_tape is empty.
