Johan Brusche was kind enough to send the entry.
Thanks! He also suggested looking on the docs CD,
but all I could find there was the "technical update",
not the release notes (which is also the case with
the on-line documentation I was able to find on the
website).
Here's the entry:
csi_density_table_size = 0x4a
scsi_tape_density[0x42] = "density_code_42" 0
0
scsi_tape_density[0x43] = "density_code_43" 0
0
scsi_tape_density[0x44] = "density_code_44" 0
0
scsi_tape_density[0x45] = "density_code_45" 0
0
scsi_tape_density[0x46] = "density_code_46" 0
0
scsi_tape_density[0x47] = "density_code_47" 0
0
scsi_tape_density[0x48] = "131000_bpi" 131000
0
scsi_tape_density[0x49] = "190000_bpi" 190000
