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?

Regards,

Arthur Marsh.
