Bug#237603: My computer hangs when discover loads parport_pc and I don't have a parport
Package: discover
Version: 1.5-2
Severity: critical
Tags: sid
Justification: breaks the whole system
The kernel module parport_pc.o hangs my computers (imac TFT 15" and
Tibook G4). I have filed a bug report about it to kernel-image. The
problem is that discover loads that module on boot always but those
PowerMac computer don't have a parport. Discover should load only
drivers to handle devices I have, shouldn't it?
Cheers.
