Running IBM PC DOS 7.0 using the word processor NOTA BENE the EPSON printer on the parallel port (DOS LPT1) correctly prints a file. Running Debian 2.2r3 on the same PC the command lptest 36 7 > /dev/lp0, /dev/lp1 and /dev/lp2 returns bash: /dev/lp0, /devlp1 and /dev/lp2 no such device. The access modes for lp0 and lp1 are crw-rw---- and lp2 is crwS--S---. lp0, lp1 and lp2 are in the /dev directory. The lptest 36 7 prints 7 rows of 36 characters on the crt. Aug. 27 I upgraded from 2.2r2 to 2.2r3. This did not help. Debina 2.2r3 will run x windows and ppp connects but 2.2r3 does not see the parallel port. The PC is P-II 450 mghz processor, Intel motherboard. Please email questions. Your help is appreciated. (:> John Kittel
