the default setup I think doesn't enable an IRQ for the parallel port which can cause problems on some systems, for 2.2.x kernels theres an entry in /proc/parport/0/irq which you can set the irq, e.g. echo 7 >/proc/parport/0/irq (7 is often used for that port). for 2.4.x kernels last I checked it's a module option, something like modprobe lp irq=7 (not sure if thats the right driver name), and am not sure if you can set this from the kernel command line. that's solved my parallel port problems. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
