So I have installed the card, see that it has the parport_pc kernel registered,
but cannot get it to go to epp.

I tried the c030 and c020 addresses. Not sure what ranges I would use for the
showport command and/or the pcisetup command - tried what seemed likely and no
dice. Also tried starting Axis with c020 and c030 addresses in hopes it would
set the board to epp for me - no dice.
