I didn't have to.....But I think the issue is that you have a T1000
and I have a Jumbo 250, which IAW the man page lft was developed
for/with/...:

//...
NOTES
     QIC format compatibility with CBWLite for Windows and harware compati-
     bilty with Colorado Jumbo 250 (using floppy interface) have been tested
     extensively.  No other configurations have been investigated.  
//... 

If I remember correctly, a friend tried to run a T1000 on the ft
driver and it didn't work.  Since lft was " Developed using the ft device 
interaction from ft(8)..." maybe some of the hw incompatibility was
inhereted?
