This is from the debian "test-5" version. I can't stay up more than a
couple of minutes with 2.2, but it's stayed up all day [then again, it
used to stay up all day, at least under vary light load, and stayed up
all day under FreeBSD]
Unfortunately, I didn't scroll far enough down to find parallel printer
support, so that module is just now compiling.
Say, have I mentioned lately that the kpkg tools are a royal pain?
Somewhere after an hour or so of messing with it, I always give up.
And I have *yet* to succeed in getting it to avoid "make clean" even
after rtfm'ing and trying to use the options the fm suggested . . . the
only time it's ever been even vaguely worth the effort was when I had a
fast machine available (but not on my desk) and needed a custom kernel
for a 486 laptop . . .
