Motherboard is an ABIT BE-6.
Of course, // port is in the kernel.
I also checked IEEE 1284 in my kernel 2.2.12, and on boot, it says
'parport0: PC-Style 0x378 [SPP, PS2]'
'parport0: Printer, EPSON Stylus Photo 750'

I also tryied to change the // port type in bios (EPP, ECP, SPP)
nothings new :(

 Is it possible that software is not like anything else, that it is meant to
be discarded:  that the whole point is to always see it as a soap bubble?
