Subject:   lpt driver is not in -stable ?
Message-ID:  <199906041357.RAA02413@hq.spc.high>

	After upgrading to 3.2-stable (from 2.2 branch) it appeared that my
	parallel printer doesn't repond. I've checked my kernel config file:

	% grep -C lpt ZKERNEL

controller	ppbus0
device		lpt0 at ppbus?

	# ls -l /dev/lpt0
crw-------  1 root  wheel   16,   0  4 ÉÀÎ 16:45 /dev/lpt0

	# lptcontrol -i

lptcontrol: open: Device not configured

	After rebuilding kernel from scratch (make clean && make depend &&
	make && make install - even this way) and booting with -c, ls (in
	config mode) doesn't show lpt driver at all !

	Although I have not ever been hacking or watching kernel code, the
	following took my attention:

	% cd /sys/i386/conf/
	% grep 'lpt\|Id' files.i386
#	$Id: files.i386,v 1.220.2.8 1999/05/27 03:06:33 julian Exp $
i386/isa/lpt.c			optional	olpt	device-driver

	Looks like there is no reference to actual driver ?
