If this is no printing issue - yes, par ports are used even for other devices;
but the main use case is unfortunately still printing - then we have to inform/
warn the users.
Therefore I suggest to add a generic message like the following to the release
notes of any post 11.4 product:
Attention: Parallel port attached devices like printers do not work out of
the box! The required kernel module named "lp" is not loaded automatically
since version 11.4. Therefore you have to add "lp" to
/etc/sysconfig/kernel:MODULES_LOADED_ON_BOOT
to get such devices working.
