SubjectRe: Parport zipdrive support broken in 2.2.9 ? NOT !!
Tim,
you are right - I was compiling plip as a module. I had wrongly assumed
this was only necessary for parallel port networking. The Zip-Drive mini
HOWTO makes no mention of parallel driver.

Anyway thanks for your help it's all working now :-)

Gabriel.
