Use the parport api instead of banging directly on the hardware. That supports the needed resource handling as well as isolating non PC parallel weirdness. drivers/paride/.. has lots of examples - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
