Yes, by setting up a rc.local file I was able to get the card working by loading and unloading parport on startup. To summarize the process. Follow the directions in this pdf: http://www.thecooltool.com/files/dateien_578.pdf But instead of part B, follow the instructions on the Ubuntu site to create a rc.local file: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RcLocalHowto The contents of the 'local' file should read: ---------------------------- #!/bin/sh sudo modprobe parport_pc sudo modprobe parport_cs sudo rmmod ppdev sudo rmmod lp sudo rmmod parport_cs sudo rmmod parport_pc ---------------------------- You should then be able to restart and hopefully all is working well. Thanks for the help everyone. Karl ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
