Subject: mt setdensity not working?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Hi,

cygwin tape support is awesome. I just would like to change the
DLT IV density on my TZ88 drive which is inside a changer, so
I can't get to the buttons. When I do

mt -f /dev/nst0 setdensity 0x41

I get "invalid argument" and same result no matter what argument
I choose.

Am I doing something wrong or is this known not to work?

thanks,
-Gunther
