Last year I posted fairly trivial patches for the T4000s, which I thought had been incorporated but I'm still running 2.1.5 on the relevant machine. > That's probably a vendor density code for the compressed mode.

Maybe the standard is out of date :-) Incidentally, the QIC standard (whose number escapes me) for Travan-4 does not specify how it is accessed as a SCSI device; I believe there is another standard (which I don't have) concerning SCSI implementation of QIC standards. -- Richard
