Standard (AFAIK)

.... MyServer kernel: imm: Version 2.03 (for Linux 2.0.0)
.... MyServer kernel: imm: parport reports no devices
....
.... MyServer insmod: Note /etc/modules.conf is more recent than
/lib/modules/2.2.13/modules.dep

Not sure about the last one..

alias parport_lowlevel   parport_pc
options parport_pc io=0x378 irq= none, none

Parallel Port Address = Auto
Parallel Port Status  = LPT1 378 IRQ7

I am guessing it is something to do with the parport options as there is no
IRQ setting in there..

Cheers

Phil
