|moin, moin,
|
|anyone know where to find docs about what l, m and a mean? 
|They're modes
|1, 2 and 3 respectively, but that doesn't exactly tell me anything :(.
|
|I'm wanting to use the compression on my tape drive, but haven't ever
|played with it.
|
|I've got all 3 devices in /dev, but when I try to use them I 
|get back an
|error about them not being configured.
|
|danke,
