There have been some good posts concerning SCSI device modules that
have helped me try to correct my problem, but nonetheless, I'm still stuck.
Ok, here is more information.
When I was using kernel 2.2.xxx my SCSI tape drive worked.
Provided immediately below I am attaching those sections of dmesg output that would appear to be relevant to my SCSI device for kernel 2.2.xxx.

After updating to kernel 2.4.18, there is only 1 line related to the SCSI
driver in dmesg as shown below:
Linux version 2.4.18-386 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.95.4

Reading some of the latest SCSI issues I put the only module I would think relates to my SCSI device in my modules file, rebooted.
Still it's not working. Here's the output form dmesg now:
Linux version 2.4.18-386 ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011002

Can anyone help me figure this one out?
