If it isn't seeing the parallel port now, why did it say it captured the lp1 when I tried loading the lp module with the rescue disk? I never tried printing while using the rescue disk. Should I switch to the shell and try redirecting to lp1 while using the rescue disk? -- Jim Crumley | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | -- E-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST.
