Public bug reported: Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.15-25-686
Recently, I added in my computer a PCI card to add a paralell port to my computer in order to be able to connect my printer. I thoudht my ubuntu dapper would be able to detect it and use it but the /dev/lp0 file does not exists. And I found the following message in dmesg : [4294707.628000] lp: driver loaded but no devices found Something strange is that I tried to boot with a Warty live-cd and the port is recognized ... and I can use it that way (unfortunately, I can't configure CUPS). The card also provides two serial ports. The description is aviable here : http://qtec.info/products/product.htm?artnr=12887 I tried to compile the kernel 2.6.17.3 from kernel.org using the config file from the ubuntu kernel but I did not succeed to boot with this new kernel, probably because I did not created any initrd image. This is the output of lspci 0000:00:0c.0 Serial controller: Timedia Technology Co Ltd PCI2S550 (Dual 16550 UART) (rev 01) (prog-if 02 [16550]) Subsystem: Timedia Technology Co Ltd: Unknown device 5079 Control: I/O+ Mem- BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping+ SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap- 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B+ ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 169 Region 0: I/O ports at 9000 [size=32] Region 2: I/O ports at 9400 [size=8] Region 3: I/O ports at 9800 [size=8] ** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- My paralell port isn't recognized https://launchpad.net/bugs/52596 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
