I'm having problems getting my printer to work with the 2.2.x kernels. 
I've added the parport stuff into the kernel and my lilo.conf, but still
no go.

Here is what I've done so far:

Kernel config:
CONFIG_PARPORT=y
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC=y
CONFIG_PRINTER=y
CONFIG_PRINTER_READBACK=y

Lilo.conf:
...
append="parport=auto lp=parport0"
...

/etc/printcap:

Any ideas on what is wrong?  It's a HP DeskJet 672C that I have had
working in the past. 

I have a list of installed packages that I can supply if that would be
of some help.

TIA,

Chris
