Yes, I expect (at least some) people do not see a pnp bug, but parport_pc
driver problem.
AFAIK there exist some strange workarounds like reloading the driver in SUSE or
similar.
The driver also seem to sometimes try to use dma == 7, which it makes up on its
own (asking some superIO chip, don't know) and is obviously wrong.
Using dma=none as default parameter should fix the parallel port for some more
people...
Also according to Tim Waugh who's address is stated in the driver nobody will
(and probably should not take the risk of modify the resource guessing magic)
look at the driver any more:

Thomas,

I'm afraid no-one maintains the parport stuff any more.

Tim.

IMO we should close this one (or is the policy to let such "sleeper" bugs open
for reference?)
