In my efforts to make osst work on 2.5.51 I've been pretty successful with
the SC-30 (scsi) and the FW-30 (ieee1394). But the ide-scsi is giving me
trouble with the DI-30 (Atapi). I get the same problem with another ide
connected tape drive and st, by the way, so I am taking a closer look at
ide-scsi. When I load the module I get:

So it seems that ide-scsi hasn't kept up with the evolving 2.5 kernel.
If no-one else is working on this, I'm prepared to take a stab at it,
but to get me jump-started any advise / hint will be most welcome.

Thanks, Willem Riede.
