Help Pl: Fedora 15 not detecting PCI Parallel Port

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello

I have installed Fedora 15 on Intel DH67BL motherboard & Intel I7-2600 Processor. Since I need to print to a Dot Matrix printer on LPT: I added a PCI Card providing a Parallel & a Serial Port. On the box it says Linux supported, but does not provide any driver. Literature inside says use Parport drivers.

BIOS shows the card installed, identifies it as 32 bit/33 MHz, and shows Vendor/Device Id as <4348:5053>. But there are no options to enable/disable or change any settings, so I think rest is all software driver related.

I need to initialize the parport driver automatically at boot time. Can someone provide instructions or point to a resource. Net search on parport is yielding low level programming links, but I just need to initialize the parallel port to install a dot matrix printer.

Please help.
Sanjay.
