Hi all,
Thanks for all the help... But I still cannot print!
I have actually done it in debian before. But after I
reinstall the debian 2.0, then it stopped working...
I have compiled the parallel port within the kernel and
also as a module. I have tried both lp0 and lp1. But....
In the boot precess, I can also see the line:

So what should I do now???
