Hello,
This is my first post to this list. I have turned to this forum, as
I've had only the one reply to my original post to the freebsd-questions
list with no resolution.
Does *anyone* know what the following statement appearing in my
dmesg.boot file means:
ppc0: cannot reserve I/O port range
This concerns my need to configure a parallel port printer on a FreeBSD
box. Here's the relevant kernel statements compiled:
device scbus # SCSI bus (required)
device da # Direct Access (disks)
# Parallel port
device ppc0 at isa? irq 7
device ppbus # Parallel port bus (required)
device lpt # Printer
device plip # TCP/IP over parallel
device ppi # Parallel port interface device
device vpo # Requires scbus and da
Uname:
$ uname -a
FreeBSD <snip> 4.6-RC FreeBSD 4.6-RC #0: Sun May 26 11:20:25 BST 2002
<snip>:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/<snip> i386
$=20
Needless to say, I can't get parallel port printing going from the start
here.
Thanks
Stacey
