Subject: No Printing with Kernel 2.6.14.4
Date: Sun, 19 Mar 2006 13:43:48 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200603190543.k2J5hmPC001185@skyinet.net> (raw)
Hi,
Slackware 10.2
When I change from kernel 2.4.31 to kernel 2.6.14.4 by installing
kernel-generic-2.6.14.4-i686-2sh.tgz and kernel-modules-2.6.14.4-i686-2sh.tgz
I cannot print anymore since apparently there is no provision for a parallel
port which my printer Epson LQ 300 is using. At least when configuring the
printer using gnome-cups-manager with kernel 2.6.14.4 it only shows serial and
usb ports.
How would I go about getting a parallel port into the 2.6.14.4 kernel. Could I
copy it from the 2.4.31 modules and which one?
In /usr/src I have no linux-2.6.14 directory only one for linux-2.4.31.
Thanks & regards

Peter
