In the future, please put the information in your subject line into the
main text of your message also. Not all people can see the subject line
while typing a reply.
char-major-6 would be the parallel printer. Your system is probably
trying to load the module lp, but cannot find it (eg, it doesn't exist,
it is not in the proper location).
Excerpt from $KERNEL_SOURCE/Documentation/devices.txt:
6 char Parallel printer devices
0 = /dev/lp0 Parallel printer on parport0
1 = /dev/lp1 Parallel printer on parport1
...
Current Linux kernels no longer have a fixed mapping
between parallel ports and I/O addresses. Instead, they
are redirected through the parport multiplex layer.
