That "address" is not the parallel port address, it is a dummy place 
holder for a passed
parameter that does nothing.  The "extradac" is a connector that 
provides 8 digital
output bits.  If you want to use it as a DAC, the extradac parameter 
creates a single
HAL pin to pass an 8-bit integer.  If you instead give the extradout 
parameter sets
up 8 output pins so you can address each output bit separately.  In both 
cases, the
numeric value does nothing, it is there because HAL requires a value for 
every
parameter.

Don's command did not specify the parallel port address, and let it 
default to 0x378.
If that is not the correct address, then he would have to specify 
something like :

loadrt hal_ppmc port_addr="0xd800" extradac=0x00

where 0xd800 is the address of the parallel port.
