Probing for PnP devices on ppbus0:
ppbus0: VLSI Vision Ltd PPC2 Camera MEDIA CPIA_1-20
What it means: the parallel port bus system - ppbus - probes the
parallel port in order to detect eventually an IEEE1284 (parallel port
standard released in 1994) compliant device. So your camera is IEEE1284
While looking at the output from dmesg, I noticed the following
which I don't remember having seen before. (Of course I might
not have had the camera hooked up to this system while running
FreeBSD before ;-)
