I am throwing this out as I have run across a few people that have had 
issues with EPP mode and the printer port.  Now onboard parallel ports 
can usually bet set to epp mode in the bios.  Onboard printer ports 
usually require some sort of utillity to put them into EPP mode.

Now if I remember correctly - there was some issues a few months ago 
with EPP mode and some intel atom boards.  Now again - if I recall 
correctly - the parallel port code for the mesa 7i43 was modified so 
that it would force the parallel port into EPP mode. (if it could)

Now - could this code be added to the hal_parport as an option?

something like

loadrt hal_parport cfg="0x278 0x378 in 0x20A0 out epp"

I have not looked yet (and don't know if I can figure it out)  but I 
thought if someone felt ambitious...  (and I might be remembering wrong)

thanks
sam
