    Unfortunately, parport_pc doesn't yet support using interrupts on PCI
    parallel port cards, for the reasons that you have discovered.

    I had hoped that these reports of freezes were related to the use of
    the ECR on NetMos chips, but I guess not.

    I'm afraid I don't know what the cause is.
