Hi Charles, 3 months ago I have setup the Dachstein-floppy router for a friend and he is very happy about it. Now he wants to attach the printer to it so his family can share.
I know that Nicholas Fong <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> has built a package (9100.lrp) for that purpose (something as "raw Socket API", used in HP JetDirect and JetDirectEX series). He is posting his package at http://pigtail.net/LRP/printsrv/index.html I contacted Nicholas and he said that we need to modify the kernel to support the LPTs. What do you think about the possibility to include this support in the upcoming version? Building a new kernel is beyond me, but here is what Nicholas wrote me: ----- Original Message ----- > > Here is what to ask for the new kernel: > > Please modify the kernel to include parallel port and printer support: > > In the kernel .config General Setup section: > CONFIG_PARIDE_PARPORT=m > > In the kernel .config Character devices section: > CONFIG_PRINTER=m > CONFIG_PRINTER_READBACK=y > > For modules.lrp, add these 3 kernel modules in /lib/modules > lp.o > parport.o > parport_pc.o > > _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
