Bug#474033: But I don't use parport, so don't load it
My Thinkpad has a parallel port, but I never use it,
so I should disable this wasteful loading:
# sed -n 's/.*\(parpo\)/\1/p' /var/log/syslog
parport_pc 00:09: activated
parport_pc 00:09: reported by Plug and Play ACPI
parport0: PC-style at 0x3bc, irq 7 [PCSPP]
I looked in /etc/init.d/ for the scripts with the access time close to
when those lines were written, but still cannot figure out which is to
blame.
Does one just write something in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist as a last
resort? Is there a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local or better place to
write that something?
