I've been running bacula with an ADIC 1200G (12x DDS-3) library for a few months now without any issues on the changer end. It took a little tweaking of the mtx-changer script in the beginning but it's been rock solid since then.
Details: OS - Linux 2.4.x Bacula - 1.34.4 and 1.36.3 Changer - ADIC 1200G Drive - Sony SDT-9000 Regarding the tweaking, ejecting the tape needs 'mt -f /dev/nstX offline' and sleep commands should be uncommented/added between any mt and mtx commands, also after the access door has been closed and a magazine loaded the changer will report "no Data Transfer Element reported" on the first mtx command but it's fine after that, so I advise running 'mtx -f /dev/sgX status' after any procedure that involves opening the access door and in the system's local startup script in the case of a power failure or some such.
