Dear Linus, I tried printerdrake again and this time did the autodetect and got these messages:
printerdrake cupsd (pid 1346) is running... parport_pc: Device or resource busy rmmod: module parport_probe is not loaded parport: Device or resource busy modprobe: Can't locate module parport_probe modprobe: Can't locate module parport_probe rmmod: module parport_probe is not loaded For the most part the same messages you are getting. Hopefully someone will be able to help us with this. Thanks. Marcia On Sunday 06 October 2002 10:32 pm, Linus Drouhard wrote: > Marcia, > Run PrinterDrake through the console.
