I commented out the line in /etc/modprobe.d/emc2, rebooted, and it failed as before. Then I uncommented the line, rebooted, and it worked first time again. I have to assume I somehow got confused when I edited this file the first time, and thought I had rebooted when I hadn't. So, the problem is just that I needed to edit that modprobe file. Is there a release note or something that would tell me I need to do this? Looking at the debug output, it seemed there was something wrong with the parallel port, but it didn't lead me to edit that file.
