Package: linux-image-2.6.16-2-686 Version: 2.6.16-14 Severity: normal
Recently I've run into the problem of the notification of the parallel port's existance not being passed onto udev until around half an hour after boot-up: Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport: PnPBIOS parport detected. Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778), irq 7, dma 1 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,ECP,DMA] Jun 17 22:24:05 localhost kernel: parport0: Printer, Canon BJC-3000 Jun 17 22:49:46 localhost kernel: lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven). /dev/lp0 doesn't get created until the time of the last message listed above, and the printer isn't accessible to CUPS until /dev/lp0 is created, so printing doesn't work until long after boot-up. I've tried a few different BIOS settings for the parallel port and the problem has stayed the same. Apart from buying a parallel port card, are there any ways to pinpoint the problem?
