Hi group,
On a fresh Gentoo 2.6.19-r5 box picprg3.01 fails to open with the error:
failed to initialize /dev/lp0. There was no /dev/lp0, so I made one with
mknod. Same problem. Gave it picprg -p0 (or was it -lp0, I forget). Same
problem. Hardware(TLVP) is unchanged from when I ran picprog3.01 and
gentoo-2.6.16 on another box where it worked fine. All the parport modules
are installed. Perhaps I need to point picprg at /dev/parport0 which is what
I get in dmesg.
Anybody suggest a way forward?
