hi martin!
first of all you i think you need to setup the parport module.....
insmod parport
insmod parport_pc io=0x378 irq=7 => it's work fine here !
for details see:
/usr/src/Documentation/parport.txt
and
modprobe baycom_par mode="picpar" iobase=0x378
sethdlc -i bcp0 -p mode "picpar" io 0x378
ifconfig bcp0 44.174.2.17 up
ifconfig bcp0 hw ax25 PU2NZW-14 up
