I have been trying to talk to a laserprinter but whenever I try
cat file >/dev/lpt0
the system panics
(if the printer is online)

it seems to be in the fork trampoline code when it crashes.
This was with kernels from Feb 1 and Feb 6.
I'm going to try absolutely current now but have seen nothing about such a
problem
in the last 2 weeks in the lists. Is everyone using ethernet attached printers?
