Hello everyone,
I use a tinycore on a CAPIO CA5 thin client. Every thing is working well (network, display, mouse...). I have installed the boot stuff on the original solidstate ide DOC of the machine and it boots correctly.
But I have a problem to use the parallel port.
On boot, I have the following dmesg :
Linux version 2.6.29.1-tinycore (root@box) (gcc version 4.2.2) #1337 SMP Fri Apr 10 19:12:39 EEST 2009

And the /proc/sys/dev/parport/parport0 directory seems to be well populated.
But I can't find any parport0 node in the /dev directory.
When I try to open the parport0, with the following "C" program,
#include<unistd.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include <sys/io.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int fd;
int mode; /* We'll need this later. */
fd = open ("/dev/parport0", O_RDWR);
if (fd == -1) {
perror ("open");
return 1;
}
}
I have the result :
open: No such file or directory
When I manually create the parport node in /dev directory by
tc@box:/dev$ sudo mknod /dev/parport0 c 99 0
I obtient
open: No such device or address
I tried to boot on a usual PC, and the partport0 (or parport1) device also don't appear in the /dev directory. So I don't think to a harware problem.
Thanks for your help.
