Thanks Ray!
In /etc/hosts I had to remove @localdomain from localhost@localdomain and lpd
started and placing the print jobs nicely into the print queue, however,
nothing is being printed.
On booting I get: Starting lp: Warning printer: cannot open '/dev/lp0' 'No
such device or address'.
dmesg gives: lp: driver loaded but no device found.
lsmod shows: parport 2 (autoclean) [lp]
I have not an onboard parport but a singel parallel PCI card with chipset
NM9805CV. It worked perfectly when I tried it on my other PC with slackware
9.1.
What have I to do that the device /dev/lp0 is found. It is in /dev/:
ls -l /dev/lp0
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 6, 0 Apr 28 1995 /dev/lp0
Regards
