    Hi Tom/Tim. Here's the only related logging that I can see and CONFIG_LP.

    Thanks,
    Steve

    the only CONFIG_LP I see:
    # CONFIG_LP486E is not set

    dmesg:
    parport0: PC-style at 0x378 [PCSPP(,...)]
    parport_pc: Via 686A parallel port: io=0x378

    kern.log:
    Jan 11 11:14:05 debian kernel: parport0: PC-style at 0x378 [PCSPP(,...)]
    Jan 11 11:14:05 debian kernel: parport_pc: Via 686A parallel port: io=0x378
    Jan 11 11:15:23 debian kernel: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7.

    lpr.log:
    Jan 12 07:38:16 debian lpd: cron.daily found errors, run checkpc for
    details.
