    Hi,

    are there known problems with parport on asus mainboards or is it just
    my fault? /dev/lp0 behaves like /dev/null, everything I print just
    disappears, no error or log messages. Even echo "hello world" > /dev/lp0
    doesn't do anything.

    Under 2.4 kernels everything works as expected.

    mainboard: asus a7v133
    distribution: unstable (sid)
    kernel: kernel-image 2.6.5-1-k7

    $ lsmod | grep lp

    > lp 11268 0
    > parport 41672 2 parport_pc,lp
