After upgrading kernel 2.6.7 to 2.6.9-rc3 my parallel printer can't be found
anymore. Same situation with rc4. The .config file is the same as for 2.6.7.
Starting kernel 2.6.7 makes printer available again. Printer is a Brother HL
1430, which never made troubles before. Bios is set to ECP/EPP.

Ah, good to know. My parallel port had also disappeared, also with 2.6.9-final. I get the message: lp: driver loaded but no devices found In /proc/ioports there is a line: 0378-037a : winbond parport Paul Slootman ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

It looks like the patch from Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de> http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0408.0/0792.html causes the problem. A patch from Andrea Arcangeli <andrea@novell.com> http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0409.3/1515.html corrects the problem. It looks like the Linus tree only has Olaf's patch. Andrew's tree (mm) has Andrea's patch. -- Paul Fulghum paulkf@microgate.com ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
