Hi,
I'm having problems installing a printer, HP DeskJet 870 Cxi. I'm
running Mandrake 5.3. I had the printer working under kernel 2.2.6
where printer and parallel support were configured as modules. I just
compiled kernel 2.2.9 and chose to build printer and parallel support
directly into the kernel. Upon booting into 2.2.9 with the boot option
'append = "parport=0x378,5"' in lilo.conf, no printer is detected by
printtool. These i/o and irq values were the ones I was using under
2.2.6. I also see this message during boot: "lp: driver loaded but no
devices found". How can I get my printer working again? Thanks,
Hidong
