Just a simple check of /usr/src/linux/.config could solve that question of
lp support in the kernel of module, anyway it CANT be both.

No i dont think thats quite correct, kerneld or modprobe/insmod look for the
module first before they resolve symbols, so like the error says it cant
find lp.o check out /usr/src/linux/.config for CONFIG_PRINTER its under
"Character devices" to see if its been compiled, or you could check
/lib/modules/kernel_version_number/misc thats where it resides.
