| |
Upon a soft-reboot (i.e. ctrl-alt-del or "reboot"), when lp tries to poll the printer, the computer freezes. After that, only a turning the power off and on will reset the computer. However, if I use halt or at any point do a hard reset, the polling will go fine and the computer will continue to boot. The printer also seems to work fine (with lpr, lpc, etc). Both lp and parport support are built into the kernel. The computer also locks whether the printer is turned on or not.
