Package: dosemu Version: 1.4.0+svn.1828-1 Severity: normal I backported dosemu to etch on my own. I'm testing some old skool win 3.11 print driver.
The printer driver says it's not connected to the printer (early hp desket 820cxi). I haven't tested this on plain dos/etc on regular hardware. dosemu.conf has: $_ports = "device /dev/lp0 fast range 0x378 0x37f" # lpt1: $_irqpassing = "7" The FAQ I was referencing is: http://dosemu.sourceforge.net/docs/HOWTO/t1.html section 4.8 ..dosemu/boot.log has: CONF: IRQ 7 for irqpassing uses SIGIO CONF: range of I/O ports 0x0378-0x037f I've tried this with lp,ppdev,parport,parport_pc modules loaded, and without. I've also tried this with cupsys offline. I have no plip modules used. dir > lpt1: just stalls forever msd (micr0soft diagnostics) says there's no lpt ports what so ever. (unless I use $_lptX = ... - but that's not baremetal access).
