If the driver doesn't detect the board, it will refuse to load (well, actually, it loads, tries to detect a board, and if it can't find one it unloads). If the board is missing, not powered up, the cable has issues, the parport isn't in EPP mode, or the driver isn't using the right port address, it won't be able to detect the board. I believe the driver prints messages in the system log (dmesg) as it tries to detect ppmc board(s) on startup. I don't recall the exact wording, but they are labeled "ppmc", so they shouldn't be hard to spot in the log.
