Well, I can confirm that this patch works. I have tested it in two kind of 
boxes, both Dell: Optiplex 745 and Optiplex GX620. 

Also, I have included Jona Forsslund (sorry Jones, if you are not interested 
delete the mail) that report this solution in some hardware that he has to 
make EPP mode avalible. [1]

Which kind of test? without the patch, when EPP mode is disable and with the 
EPP mode is enable. Also, I have tried to write a EPP message and seems that 
works.

Leo

Version: 3.4.1-1~experimental.1+rm

Debian 6.0 Long Term Support has now ended, and the 'linux-2.6' source
package will no longer be updated.  This bug is being closed on the
assumption that it does not affect the kernel versions in newer Debian
releases.

If you can still reproduce this bug in a newer release, please reopen
the bug report and reassign it to 'src:linux' and the affected version
of the package.  You can find the package version for the running
kernel by running:

    uname -v

or the versions of all installed kernel packages by running:

    dpkg -l 'linux-image-[34]*' | grep ^.i

and looking at the third column.

I apologise that we weren't able to provide a specific resolution for
this bug.

Ben.
