One Lp, problem solved! But where do parms go?



I posted a question here a while ago asking how to
configure the system to use only one of three LP ports
that I have. (on potato) I found out the answer, and
it's not what anyone else mentioned.

I had to give parport_pc the following module
argument:
io=0x378

I had to then give lp the following module argument:
parport1,none,none

This was figured out by running modinfo -p on lp.o and
parport_pc.o  (I also figure how how to configure my
sb module that way!)

Now I have a question...where are the module
parameters given to modconf stored.  They are NOT in
/etc/modules as the comments there seem to indicate. 
Does modconf actually modify the module binary?  Or is
there another configuration file someplace?
