Quoting myself from another thread: Most probably, you ran into a known kernel bug: when the parport is set to ECP mode, the kernel thinks it also support EPP mode. When the driver tries that mode, it gets stuck. The solution is to set your parport to EPP mode in the BIOS (EPP+ECP may work too, but I've also had problem reports with that combination).
