I use a lot of tapes but never a USB, but from my knowledge I would try
lsusb
then read the output and look at the id's, find the one that
has the usb tape drive attached to it, then use
lsusb -vv
and find the matching id to get more info.
You could also try:
modprobe usb_storage
then
modbrobe st
and then do
"lsmod | grep storage"
"lsmod | grep st"
that they are loaded (st should require to load the scsi stuff too).
You could also look into /dev and look at the major numbers (from
memory 9 is tapes??).
ls -al /dev/tape/by-id
and
ls -la /dev/.udev
and look through all of those.
check whether there is something with "usb-st" or so.
