Hi, I've reported the following as bug #374145, and wondered if anyone
else has experienced it?
On boot-up, the on-board parallel port is detected, but the last stage
which includes loading the module "lp" doesn't happen until later.
Initial detection:
Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport: PnPBIOS parport detected.
Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778),
irq 7, dma 1 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,ECP,DMA]
Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport0: Printer, Canon BJC-3000
then about 25 minutes later:
Jun 17 22:49:46 localhost kernel: lp0: using parport0
(interrupt-driven).
udev doesn't create /dev/lp0 (needed for printing) until the last stage
above.
The kernel is linux-image-2.6.16-2-686 version 2.6.16-14 on a PII-266
with Intel 440LX chipset.
My workaround was to add the line:
lp
to /etc/modules.
