We have ordered a TS-11 type drive and a TC02 controller. This is the first
I've heard of these problems (though I'm not suprised -- one would think that
Berkeley could have at least tested their software properly first, though it's
obvious tht some of the 2.9 sources were never fully checked). I would be
very grateful if anyone could tell me about the errors in the ts.c driver.
I don't have time to go through it from scratch (due to academic pressures),
so could someone e-mail me about these errors (and/or fixes)?

Thanks.
