I have an OLD SIIG board that I use for final test on all my products.  
It is the DUAL
parport SIIG board.  It has an EPROM that has to be set by a Win95 
program to select
port settings like EPP vs ECP.  But, it works fine.

One odd thing about the new board, the product ID is 1020, and that 
appears to ALSO
be the port address.  Maybe something is confused, and lspci is showing 
the wrong field
as the address.  I intend to do some more poking around.

Yes, lspci also shows Oxford as the manufacturer.

I don't have much in the way of Windows computers here, except my kids' 
laptops, which
won't do any good.

Yes, I really didn't know which list to put it on, it is both a user's 
and a developer's
sort of problem.

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
