For example, if I try to print one of the postscript examples (tiger.ps) from de ghostscript port (gs 5.50), I obtain more or less the picture, but with some incorrect lines, and some garbages (cabalistic characters), and sometime unattended formfeed. I think lpt0 (ex nlpt0 device) is the problem, because if I change in the BIOS the mode of the parallel port (SPP, EPP 1.7, EPP 1.9, EPP+ECP), I don't obtain the same results. I also try to play with the flags of ppc device in the kernel config file, but with no luck. My motherboard is a QDI Legend V (Intel 440LX chipset). I try to compile a kernel with the olpt0 driver, but the compilation fail... I have no problem with freebsd 2.X, and linux. Do you have any suggestion ? Thank you.
