First, of course, you need to make sure the driver can talk to the Pico Systems device(s). Recent versions of LinuxCNC send more info to the kernel log reporting what they sensed connected to the parallel port. So, do :
dmesg | grep PPMC and it will pull only the lines from the ppmc driver out of the thousands of lines in the dmesg file. If no boards are found, then you need to try the diagnostic program to see if communication can be established. I don't know what Pico board you have, so I can't direct you to the correct diag program. Finally, you MUST use an IEEE-1284 cable. Standard DB-25 cables will not work, due to crosstalk.
