Just a longshot - the PCI slots in a 280R are (from memory) 'different'
aren't they (something like 3 are 33mhz, and one is 66mhz).
Might be worth trying it in a different PCI slot.

   Yes, sure jbconfig...

   Unfortunately i don't see either /dev/rmt entries and SCSI bus,
even
after a reconfigure boot but if I attached the library on the LVD SCSI
bus
on motherboard everythings works fine.
I suppose the problem is within the PCI LVD-SE card. Any suggestion on
how
to test it is really appreciated.

   I'll try this hint.
