Hm, there shouldn't be any conflicting IRQs, since the ZIP is a parallel port device? I rmmod lp and killed lpd. cat /proc/interrupts gives CPU0 0: 36137 XT-PIC timer 1: 1182 XT-PIC keyboard 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 3: 4976 XT-PIC serial 4: 1046 XT-PIC serial 8: 2 XT-PIC rtc 13: 0 XT-PIC fpu 14: 36638 XT-PIC ide0 15: 4 XT-PIC ide1 NMI: 0 But modprobe ppa still gives: /lib/modules/2.2.5/scsi/ppa.o: init_module: Device or resource busy parport: Device or resource busy Stef
