I tried 2.1.109-pre2 with CONFIG_PARPORT, CONFIG_PARPORT_PC, and
CONFIG_PRINTER all compiled in, and all that happens is that my printer
resets (which I think is due to parport).
I've got Alan's ac2 patch now, so I'll try that this evening.
Patrick, at what point does the printer start doing things -- is it almost
immediately upon boot-up, or does it take a while?
Also, can you print to the printer normally after it's printed garbage?
What does the garbage look like and how much of it is there?
Tim.
