Thanks Peter it really helps.
A few questions:

I wonder if this would be considered a bug?
IIRC our docs say using probe_parport when not required is benign.
I guess if we can, we need to fix this with uspace or change our docs.

Does the 7i76E, in general come with the same firmware as the 7i76?
Is there also a 7i77E?
If so I will add that to pncconf's internal firmware.
I'm sure I can find a sample config to follow the driver line
or check the man page.

How would one test for the DPLL module being present?
Is it depended on just using master or are there firmware updates to hardware
needed?

If DPLL is available is there any reason to NOT use it?
