- I haven't had any responses for IRIX 4.0.5 and 8mm.
- I do know 2 customers that have been told they will receive
- 4.0.5 as soon at it starts/resumes shipping.
-
- I have only had about 4 responses RE: SunOS 4.0.2 and 8mm, so
- far I haven't been able to use them in testing for one reason or
- another.
-
- I'm am told by SGI that 4.0.5 will work like VMS tape drive, and that
- previous versions 8mm drivers had problems. I was not allowed to
- actually test RMTALLOC over the net to 4.0.5 in order to confirm this.
