https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=353189 Summary: load ppdev kernel module automatically when parport is loaded Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jsmeix@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Development I would like that the ppdev kernel module is loaded automatically when parport is loaded. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/173919 for the reason behind my request, in particular see https://bugs.launchpad.net/hplip/+bug/173919/comments/3 --------------------------------------------------------------- Other distros automatically load ppdev when they load parport. As far as I know Suse is the only one that does not load it automatically. .. Because all user mode parport applications will require ppdev. This is because you cannot use parport from user mode without ppdev. --------------------------------------------------------------- -- 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.
