Here it is part of my kernel configuration file:
device ppc0 at isa? irq 7
device ppbus
device lpt
#device ppi <-- I tried with this option switched on also
#device vpo
#device plip
#device pps
#device lpbb
#device pcfclock
Next strings I see while my kernel loading:
ppc0: <Parallel port> at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa0
ppc0: Generic chipset (EPP/NIBBLE) in COMPATIBLE mode
lpt0: <Printer> on ppbus0
lpt0: Interrupt-driven port
Strings from /etc/rc.conf:
# Printer daemon
lpd_enable="NO"
What can you advice?
Anton
What's the output of the following command?
$fstat /dev/lpt0
