Sorry, I guess I overlooked in the forum thread that you use the binary version :( The host parallel port support is at the moment only available in the CVS version (the CVS log message is at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-11/msg00185.html). So, if you want to use the host parallel port with qemu, you should upgrade to the current CVS version. Daily CVS snapshots are available at http://qemu.dad-answers.com/download/qemu/ Regards, Oliver -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDn0AGTFOM6DcNJ6cRAsJJAJ9uWg65F93tbPnlPeXd+uXRiCy4EACfbkmc IbMxcTVJU0iZSBHWxwf2E+s= =k8KL -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
