SubjectParallel printers
Date

Is it really necessary to give command line arguments when booting,
eg "linux parport=0x378,7 lp=parport0",
in order to use a parallel printer with linux-2.1.7?
(assuming one has compiled parport in the kernel)
as seems to be suggested in parport.txt ?

Can one not make an appropriate entry in an rc file,
or else in lilo.conf ?

Also, is there any clever way of telling /etc/printcap
to use lp0 with linux-2.0 and lp1 with linux-2.1 ?
