Hi everybody,
just noticed that my parallel port printer unfortunately only works
with the prop. BIOS:
From dmesg:
coreboot: [ 54.388956] lp: driver loaded but no devices found [ 54.409159] ppdev: user-space parallel port driver
prop. BIOS: [ 179.494713] lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven). [ 179.516281] ppdev: user-space parallel port driver
With the attached patch I get the following output on modprobe parport: [ 28.848297] lp0: using parport0 (polling). [ 28.858860] ppdev: user-space parallel port driver
The patch also turns on the floppy device, but I've none here to verify if it will work. It would be great if you can test if floppy works, so that we could mark the last two "not-working" parts as OK in the wiki, if it the floppy does its job
Sry, I forgot to sign it off: Signed-off-by: Harald Gutmann harald.gutmann@gmx.net
