Okay, just wanted to clarify.

ok.

ok. Type 8 is a changer, so we'll need to build you a SCSI quirks table
entry to make this thing show up.
Before we do that though, make sure that you have
device ch0
compiled into your kernel. Looking at the quirks table, that section will
be ignored if you don't have that device compiled in.
If you do have ch0 in, starting at line 341 is the quirks table entries
for changers. Try adding an entry like:
{
T_CHANGER, T_CHANGER, T_REMOV, "QUALSTAR", "TLS-4210",
"*", "ch", SC_MORE_LUS
},
This forces the SCSI code to probe the device on all LUNs and appear as a
ch device.
