Thank you very much! That's not a good sign. A hunch tells me it might be an interrupt conflict or I/O problem. Does your BIOS let you enable and disable the parallel port? If so, is it enabled? Does the BIOS have interrupt and/or I/O settings for it? You may need to load the parport_pc module with: insmod parport_pc io=0x378 irq=7 (Assuming your parallel port is using the IO port at 0x378 and IRQ 7. More info at, including a description of the /proc/sys/dev/parport tree at : http://dan.drydog.com/docs/redhat/kernel-doc-2.4.18/parport.txt ) Also, what is the output of "cat /proc/interrupts" and "cat /proc/ioports" both before and after loading the modules. --Brad > Craig [very complete reply to debugging suggestions snipped] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
