Hello, After upgrading the kernel (2.2.9-19 --> 2.2.11-2 from "cooker") the printer modules are not loaded correctly during booting. The following entries are in /etc/modules.conf: alias eth0 3c59x alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc pre-install pcmcia_core /etc/rc.d/init.d/pcmcia start alias sound sb pre-install sound insmod sound dmabuf=1 alias midi opl3 options opl3 io=0x388 options sb io=0x220 irq=5 dma=1 dma16=5 mpu_io=0x330 Ethernet and sound are ok, if I do an "lsmod" after startup I get: Module Size Used by nfsd 146236 1 (autoclean) lockd 32712 1 (autoclean) [nfsd] sunrpc 55812 1 (autoclean) [nfsd lockd] 3c59x 19592 1 (autoclean) nls_iso8859-1 2052 1 (autoclean) nls_cp437 3580 1 (autoclean) vfat 11196 1 (autoclean) fat 32608 1 (autoclean) [vfat] opl3 14600 0 sb 36596 0 uart401 6224 0 [sb] sound 64504 0 [opl3 sb uart401] soundlow 300 0 [sound] soundcore 2628 6 [sb sound] I have to enter manually (thanks to bero for this tip!): modprobe parport modprobe parport_pc modprobe lp and restart lpd (lpd is started during bootup) and printing works. "lsmod" shows now: Module Size Used by lp 4988 0 (unused) parport_pc 5940 1 parport 7316 1 [lp parport_pc] nfsd 146236 1 (autoclean) lockd 32712 1 (autoclean) [nfsd] sunrpc 55812 1 (autoclean) [nfsd lockd] etc... The strange thing is, with kernel 2.2.9 it worked! I have also updated the initscripts and I wonder what´s wrong. Would be grateful for any hints to get my printer working automatically again! Thanks and bye, Willy
