Hi I don't think this made it onto the list, so I'm re-sending it............
---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Parallel Port Support Date: Tuesday 13 Dec 2005 17:08 From: Trev Jackson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org Hi I have also posted this (QEMU for Linux //// has anyone got their parallel port working?) on the QEMU forum regarding this, but since I understand parallel port support is recent I thought It might be useful to post on the development list as well. I am trying to capture my parallel port scanner setup data so a Linux driver can be written, (portmon for windows doesn't capture anything). I cannot currently get the scanner working on windows 98SE running on QEMU. I first downloaded the QEMU binary, but QEMU wouldn't run with the parallel port option enabled: # qemu -parallel /dev/parport0 -dummy-net -enable-audio -localtime -boot c windows.img Could not open '/dev/kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activated qemu: could not open parallel device '/dev/parport0' I did the following to create the /dev/parport0 device: modprobe parport-pc && modprobe ppdev rmmod lp I then ran makedev /dev and that created /dev/parport0 to /dev/parport7 I have now built QEMU 0.7.2 from source and am getting a similar error message: # qemu -parallel /dev/parport0 -dummy-net -enable-audio -localtime -boot c windows.img qemu: could not open parallel device '/dev/parport0' Is this a problem with my set up or does this problem occur with everyones.
