I believe I saw in SuSE perhaps the possibility to use the parallel port in polling mode - so maybe you should change your config to NOT USE interrupts. Sorry, I can´t access a linux machine right now, so I can´t help any further. Have a look at the parallel drivers section - howto and so on.

So I think you are saying it is ok to have the spurious interrupt.. the only issue is hosing the console? I am worried about having the interrupt... I can live w/ hosing the console till that gets fixed.
