Description sasha 1999-02-19 16:51:18 UTC 
mt -f /dev/nst0 fsf 1(2,3,etc)
or
mt -f /dev/nst0 retension
yield no result.

the same problem experienced with mt-st versions 0.5-2 and
0.5b-1 downloaded from RawHide-1.0. mt-st version 0.4-5,
which is a part of RH 5.1 distribution, does work.

my system is as follows
- i686 (PII-400)
- DPT PM2044UW Ultra Wide SCSI controller
- HP C1537A SureStore DDS-3 DAT24 tape drive
running stock RH 5.2 with kernel upgraded to 2.0.36-1
Comment 1 Jeff Johnson 1999-02-19 18:09:59 UTC 
Could you please verify (again) that mt-st-0.5b-1 from Raw Hide
does not fix your problem? (See bug #276)
Comment 2 sasha 1999-02-19 18:38:59 UTC 
attempting to recreate the problem with mt-st-0.5b-1:

unable to execute mt:

# rpm -Uvh mt-st-0.5b-1.i386.rpm
mt-st         ##############################################
# mt -f /dev/nst0 stat
mt: error in loading shared libraries
: undefined symbol: __register_frame_info
# mt
mt: error in loading shared libraries
: undefined symbol: __register_frame_info

i also erroneouly submitted the same bug report as 1247, please
disregard

thanks
