Is there currently a working version of ftape for
2.4 kernels? The actual version look like it will
only work with 2.2 kernels.

Does nobody use those drives anymore?

Regards, 
Jim MacBaine

The one included in current 2.4 kernels should still work for most
ftape hardware. 2.5 has a minor but fixable compile problem due to
the virt_to_bus() interface change.

They're not exactly popular, but I still use my old Seagate/Conner
TR-3 unit on a remote server.
