That message SHOULD read:
"ppa: parport reports no parallel ports (try insmod parport_pc)".
Will patch the above into parport-scsi which I am *almost* finished.
This will replace the existing ppa and imm drivers in 2.3.x, current status:
a) imm coded & stress tested
b) ppa coded but not tested (should be tested by tonight)
c) t348 partially coded (*)
d) t358 have not even looked at yet (*)

PS: (*) The Trantor devices I will rely on other people testing since I do not
have access to one.

Any assistance to clearing this list most welcome
