Here's another problem I'm having, which probably is a 'hardware problem',
but I have little desire to take my computer in to repair, so I want to
make sure.

The parallel port doesn't seem to work, meaning that if I send something
to the printer, nothing happens at all.  However, the kernel seems to
detect it, as shown in the output of dmesg:

parport0: PC-style at 0x378, irq 7 [SPP,ECP,ECPPS2]
lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven).

When I try, as root to do tunelp /dev/lp0, I get:

/dev/lp0 Device or resource busy

I have Windows NT 4.0 on the same machine, and it doesn't seem to detect
the parport at all.

I've tried fooling around with the BIOS settings, with no success.

Thanks,

Ephraim
