I've been using an Ultra 1 running 'woody' as my primary workstation for quite a while. I'd like to hook up my LaserJet 4 directly to this box, but I've been unsuccessful in trying to get the parallel port to work. I've looked at various different FAQs and HOWTOs, and haven't found any hints about it. Is the parallel port on the Ultra 1 a standard (PC-style) port? Is it supported in Sparc Linux? What modules (and parameters) do I need to load? (I'm running kernel 2.2.20. I had tried 2.4.16 once, but had some random problems with sound support, so switched back. I haven't paid close attention -- what are the issues with the current 2.4.18 kernel? I'd prefer to run that...) Thanks, Rob.
