Well, I made some progress on my problem. 

I made the mistake assumption that the drive could handle other tapes of
lower capacity (like 120 meg tapes) just like it could under the Windows
software (maybe it's a sofware issue and not hardware?). I had a couple of
250 meg tapes and 'tons' of 120 meg ones. It looks like the 250 ones work
just fine with no errors being reported. A test tar store and recover works
perfectly.

So I guess the obvious question is, do I need to change something in the
configuration (or a command line option) in order to be able to the use the
120 meg tapes?
