The exact model would be helpful.  Also, note that pre-built amanda 
binaries often lead to troubles.  Building it yourself can make getting 
things running a lot easier.

I don't know much about chg-multi, and I'm not sure exactly what changer 
you've got, but you may want to look at mtx <http://mtx.badtux.net/> and 
the chg-zd-mtx changer.  It gives you (and amanda) a lot of control over 
the changer.  I see at least one Ultrium changer listed in the 
compatibility list.

Good luck.
