So it is "sometimes pci parallel ports works, sometimes it does not", right?
No. It _never_ works after booting.
Is it possible that lp0 & lp1 simply change names based on probing order, or something like that?
Hm, I don't know...
Can you try to reproduce the problem without starting cups / YaST / etc?
Yes. After _each_ boot, printing doesn't work. And when I don't start yast/printing and don't restart cups, I don't get working printing at all.
It would be best to disable on-board lp port, and then just see if echo foo > /dev/lp0 fails with ENODEV or not.
Hm, I was yet thinking about to do so, but the problem is that the mainboard BIOS doesn't provide the possibility to disable the internal parallel port. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
