            Hello,

            it is possible to succeesfully open a /dev/parport device which does not
    have an underlying port. I'd expect to get ENODEV or ENOXIO. We can only notice
    that the device is invalid when we claim it.

            Is it the expected behaviour ?

    Regards,
            Stef
