the lcd4linux module can't gain access to the parallel port.
i'm using bering-uClibc, 2.1 on a EPIA 5000 mini-itx motherboard.

on startup i'm loading the ppdev.o, parport.o, and parport_pc.o
modules and the messages file under /var/log shows "parport0: PC-style
at 0x378 [PCSPP(,...)]" on boot-up.

however, when i run the lcd4linux module - after everything
initializes and it goes to set up the parallel port i get:
parport.c: using ppdev /dev/parport0
parport: open(/dev/parport0) failed: No such device
HD44780: could not initialize parallel port!

any assistance would be appreciated, i'm not sure why it says there's
no device parport0, since it seems to initialize properly on boot-up.

thanks,

kevin.
