No surprise -- there is no 2.2.x port of the ppbus stuff (although
it seems a trivial thing... it seems to compile fine here although
i have no hardware to test it), not to mention any white paper or
sample application -- at least i am not aware of any.

Do you have pointers ?

(and speaking of interest -- for the quickcam probably it is not worth
the effort, but for scanners etc it would be a very nice thing to do
given that a lot of scanners on the market now seem to use the parallel
port).
