O.K. No response. :-( Now i installed Debian Squeeze on a free partition of a PC with the same mainboard and nForce3 chipset. (00:08.0 IDE interface: nVidia Corporation CK8S Parallel ATA Controller (v2.5) (rev a2)) After installing and configuration i tried to print and - Yeah it works immediately!
So what have you done with the sources and configuration? It's the same kernel and driver version! ~$ uname -a Linux PC11 2.6.32-5-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Nov 25 18:02:11 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux ~$ lsmod | grep lp lp 7462 0 parport 27954 3 ppdev,lp,parport_pc Up to now i was really enthusiastic to use Kubuntu. It's a really good community and up to date. But this can't compensate basic problems with interfaces that are needed (Look also Bug #665622). I think there are many people with the same problems, because this is a standard chipset and there are so many parallel printer in use. So i see only one solution: Back to the roots! Now i have much work to make all the installation and configuration work again at Debian Squeeze ... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/682434 Title: Parallel Port /dev/lp0 does not work -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
