I've had a lot of problems--and so have a few others (very few) with the = 4.6=20 kernels not recognizing parallel ports to the point they are not useable.= =20 simply cant use them to print. The kernel on boot spits out "ppc0: canno= t=20 reserve range". =20 I have installed 5.0-DP1 and it_does properly recognize the parallel port= s. =20 HOWEVER if I cvsup the kernel source and recompile a new kernel (fer=20 instance, for sound card support) that capability goes away. Has anyone else seen this??? NOthing I have done with the 4.6- or 4.7 ker= nels=20 has helped. =20 Guess it's back to 5.0-DP1, if I want to print, eh? --karl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
