I hope this is the right place for this.
I've got a strange problem. 2.0.34
prints OK.
I just compiled 2.1.108 ac2 :
CONFIG_PARPORT=Y
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=Y
CONFIG_PRINTER=Y
Printer won't print using lpr -Pxxx
<file>,
I get from lpq, printer not ready,
however I can cat <file> > /dev/lp0, and
it
prints.
So I recompiled linux as
CONFIG_PARPORT=M
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=M
and recompiled: CONFIG_PRINTER never
came up.
I figured I could taylor the io and irq
using
insmod, however I could not load
parport_pc as
a module, it said process in use or busy
or
something to that effect and why no lp
module.
Any Ideas???
Thanks Len
