Hi Joe,

I'm sure there's an easy answer to this question. How do I locate/activate my parallel port? I'm running FC3 on an Intel 845-based motherboard. /$ dmesg | grep par/ turns up nothing. /$ cat /proc/ioports/ turns up nothing looking like a parallel port, either. The 378 neighborhood seems vacant. Is there a set of packages that I need to install?


what does

    modprobe -k parport_pc

say? If it doesn't show up in Linux, it might be disabled
in your BIOS?! More than the kernelmodule parport_pc is AFAIK
not needed.
