RS6000 running CUPS.... parport_pc needs to be motivated

2008-11-21 Thread Benjamin Hoffman
Every time the server reboots I have to run this command.

RS6000:~# modprobe parport_pc

If I don't CUPS replies printer not connected.

Using as a windows printer via Samba.

The server operates great otherwise.

Could someone explain what I'm doing wrong?

Running etch on a RS6000 44p -170.


Thanks

Ben

Doing that manually is sort of wrong since it can be automatically
done at boot-time, if you add a line:

parport_pc

in /etc/modules

Kind regards,
