Summary: OnStream ATAPI Streamer refuses to eject after usage

Description j.a.beysens 2001-03-04 20:10:02 UTC 
Under Release 4.1 the OnStream DI30 worked fine, however since upgrading (fresh installation) to 4.2 it keeps tapes locked inside after one single tape command. Pressing the eject button does nothing and an offline command with mt tells one the device is busy. A reboot seems the only way to get a tape ejected.

How-To-Repeat: Reboot and put a tape inside
issue tape command for example mt -f /dev/rast0 status
tape is locked in

The Onstream "wintape" is not really supported by the ata driver, but
anyhow this problem shouldn't exist and I'll take a look at it...

However if you value your data you shouldn't be using the ontream....

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

This works for me in -current now, and onstream is dead, so I close this.
