I ran into the problem that the IRQ for /dev/lp1 set by tunelp was vanishing spontaneously. A number of people figured out what the problem was: The lp driver was an auto-loaded module, and the IRQ setting vanished when kerneld removed it.
The most direct answer was given by Bas Mevissen:
You are probably using lp.o as a module and you load it automagically with kerneld. So add the following line to /etc/conf.modules (and restart kerneld):
options lp irq=0,7,0
(BTW, the documentation for /etc/conf.modules is in the man page for depmod(1)/modprobe(1), but isn't installed as conf.modules(5).
Thanks, all!
