| |
So I cannot print 2.2.5 With 2.0.36 everything works.
trying to access parport: bash: /dev/lp1: Operation not supported by device it make modules to load, but parport_pc doesn't load.
lsmod: parport_probe 3012 0 (autoclean) (unused) lp 5148 0 (autoclean) (unused) parport 7156 0 (autoclean) [parport_probe lp]
If I modprobe parport_pc, then it loads and the printer comes on-line, but then it says the same as above. If I change rows in /lib/modules/2.2.5/modules.dep makeing lp depend on parport_pc then it says: /dev/lp1: device is not configured, If I make parport_pc depend on lp it hangs on, but with ctrl-c it stops (well this time lp waits on parport_pc to load first and parport_pc waits for lp) Cancelling the first change it still says the first answer. So I'm on a wrong way.
It doesn't matter if kerneld is running or not. It is the same story. in kernel .config: CONFIG_PARPORT=m CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=m # CONFIG_PARPORT_OTHER is not set # CONFIG_PARIDE_PARPORT is not set (well, it happened that, although I set it off with xconfig, in file .config it was still set =m!. I had to set it off by hand. ) # CONFIG_PARIDE is not set CONFIG_PRINTER=m CONFIG_PRINTER_READBACK=y
I only have one printer and only one parport. It's lp1 (0x378). I use no more devs on parport. The cabel is ok. I can print with 2.0.36. The same problem with 2.2.4. Is it something wrong with kmod? Please help!
