Okay,
so I have to install ppdev for 2.2.16 and find information about it. Is
the archive downloadable somewehere?
On http://www.torque.net/parport/archive/current/ I don't see an
option to download the whole archive . However I remember varguely
that somewhere there was such an download option, but doing the
download actually retriever RFC 822 :-(
Is there an example to use recent ppdev?
B.t.w.: on http://people.redhat.com/twaugh/parport/ the http link to
2.2.17... is stale.
