Onstream DI-30 not responding 2.6

[Stef van der Made <svdmade@planet.nl>]

Hi

I'm trying to use my Onstream DI-30 (IDE) tape device with Kernel 
2.6.0-test1. When trying to access the drive using the old 2.2 kernels 
and 2.4 these commands worked fine

bash-2.05# mt -f /dev/nht0 status
/dev/nht0: No such device
bash-2.05# mt -f /dev/ht0 status
/dev/ht0: No such device
bash-2.05# mt -f /dev/hdd status
/dev/hdd: No such device or address
bash-2.05# mt -f /dev/hdc status
/dev/hdc: No such device or address

While they now are showing ugly errors.

This is a part of the boot log

VP_IDE: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:07.1
VP_IDE: chipset revision 16
VP_IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later

Thanks in advance for any tips on a solution for this problem.
