hi,

same problem here using a dell tape drive, not sure of specifics right 
now because its on a remote server but i can ask for them

did you find any fix to this? i can do those rectest and write a label 
ok, but others fail
btape runs as root, should be ok, also bacula is in the tape group

ill get back with further info if required
