I use modules and lp with an irq of 7. Except the lp modules detects my lpt port as lp1 so my options line in modules.conf looks like this:
options lp irq=0,7,0
If you're using modern kernels (suck as 2.1.25 on or so) then there is code missing in the lp module.
Look for this code: #ifdef MODULE static int io[] = {0, 0, 0}; static int irq[] = {0, 0, 0};
and add MODULE_PARM(io, "1-3i"); MODULE_PARM(irq, "1-3i");
below them.
