Re: parport driver problems

[<shyamk@eth.net>]

You told me to
append  = "lp=parport0 parport=0x378,none"
to the lilo.conf
What does      parport=0x378,none    mean ?

Thanks

You might try adding the following to your lilo.conf append line.
append  = "lp=parport0 parport=0x378,none"
then rerun lilo and reboot.

:-) HTH, YMMV, HAND :-)
