I bought a parallel port pci card and then I found out that FreeBSD isn't supporting it. There appears to be a patch for NetBSD so that it supports it via their puc(4) driver. pciconf categorizes it into 'simple comms' (0x078000),the device name is 'Nm9805 PCI + 1284 Printer Port'. I was looking around and found the file sys/dev/puc/pucdata.c within the kernel sources. What effect would it have if i would create an additional entry for that card? Or better, which files need to be modified to support this card.
