I have recently installed kernel 2.20-pre8-ac1 and I cannot print now.When I
run printtool I get a message that my print port /dev/lp1 not detected.
I have tried
cd /dev
../MAKEDEV lp1
I get the message ./MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "lp1"
I have also tried as root " modprobe lp" and then "lsmod"and I get the
following
Module Size Used by
parport_probe 2916 0 (autoclean) (unused)
lp 4508 0 (autoclean) (unused)
parport 6996 0 [autoclean)(parport_probe lp]
besides a whole lot of other entries
How do I get back my /dev/lp1
Thanks,
Gerry Mascarenhas
