Unless there are other causes -- like bizarre side-effects from
interrupts -- or something even further out, I'm guessing that
the reason my deskjet has stopped working recently (in FreeBSD-4.1)
is a driver or configuration problem.
There were a few postings on -stable not too many weeks back, but
I can't find them in the archives.
Here is the related dmesg output:
ppc0: <Parallel port> at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 on isa0
ppc0: Generic chipset (EPP/NIBBLE) in COMPATIBLE mode
plip0: <PLIP network interface> on ppbus0
lpt0: <Printer> on ppbus0
lpt0: Interrupt-driven port
ppi0: <Parallel I/O> on ppbus0
I have changed nothing in my KERNEL file from the GENERIC setup;
can anybody tell me what needs doing to get my old DeskJet-500
back to working?
thanks much,
gary
