Oooops... (again...) only now noticed that bit, it means your basic parallel port modules are loaded and therefore parallel port should work!   :)

a bit of information:

lsmod | grep port

parport_pc 18352 0
parport       18763 1 parpor_pc

      parport_pc 00:0c probe 00:0c failed with error -22

lsmod | grep port

Thanks

Along the lines of pnp o/s, maybe it could be named something else like "plug n' play o/s"

You could also try booting with "pnpacpi=off" or manually pass the settings (ie during modprobe)
