Wow, you must be doing some hardcore shit there if you need all that. What bit-banging do you need to do with all that? if you just added it because it's in LINT and you don't actually need it, try replacing it with: controller ppbus0 device lpt0 at ppbus? # Printer device plip0 at ppbus? # TCP/IP over parallel device ppi0 at ppbus? # Parallel port interface device You may not even need plip0 and ppi0, actually. If you actually need the bit-banging iicbus, you'll have to wait for someone with more clue to help you past yuour compilation errors. Be careful about using LINT as a reference when you're constructing a kernel. Rather look at GENERIC and fall back to LINT where necessary. Ciao, Sheldon.
