Message-ID: <4286617B.8070000@tiscali.it> (raw)

Hi,
i'm using a LFS linux with udev version 0.57. All works fine except for
the parport device that is not correctly rappresented in /dev.
I have just looked in dmesg for the right assignament of the parallel
port and all seems fine. In sysfs there is a "parport0" too.
Then i have looked udev rules file and found this:

"KERNEL="parport[0-9]*", NAME="%k", GROUP="lp"

This is the standard file of LFS udev rules and searching around with
google i have seen that it's widley used. Is it right? Or is a bug?
Because i have tried to change the string above with this:

KERNEL="parport0", NAME="%k", GROUP="lp"

matching completly the name of the port.. and it's a mistake but
parport0 dev node is now in /dev!

This is my dmesg when parport is loaded:

pnp: the driver 'parport_pc' has been registered
pnp: match found with the PnP device '00:07' and the driver 'parport_pc'
parport: PnPBIOS parport detected.
parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778), irq 7, dma 3
[PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,EPP,ECP,DMA]

Thanks in advance for any support or fix :)

Sandro Latini
