Hi, and a happy christmas, I try to install a slink on a Toshiba Satellite 110-CT, but this laptop has no cd-rom. Thus I try a plip installation, but without any results. The problem is the parport isn't recognise, when I look at /proc/ioports, there's no 378-37a : parport0. When I try to insmod the parport module, it fails. I can't install the plip module because the parport module isn't charged I don't understand why. So I use a SuSE 6.1 on another laptop with a cdrom (this is my nfs server), and the manipulation to configure my plip connection is strange :
### echo 7 > /proc/parport/0/irq ### modprobe plip ### ifconfig plip0 192.168.1.10 pointopoint 192.168.1.9 The document used to help me is a article in Linux Gazette, but there's no explanations for the parport problem. So, perhaps can you help me ? Regards, Manu
