> The device is still /dev/lp0. lp1 and lp2 are still not configured, I read these words, but I don't understand what you mean by them. If you're running a 2.0.x kernel, 0x378 means minor number 1. You can only change it by editing drivers/char/lp.c which I assume you haven't. Minor number 0 goes to 0x3bc and I'm guessing you really don't want that. > and tunelp still gives the same output.
