Hey All

I'm being told that I need to have the following intsalled on my box:

CONFIG_PARPORT
CONFIG_PARPORT_PC
CONFIG_SERIAL_EXTENDED

This is a Debian Woody box and I've been told that I could do a "modprobe partport_pc" and this would do the trick. However, when I do that I get the following message: "modprobe: Can't locate module parport_pc". I was then told to cd to the kernal directory:
"/lib/modules/2.4.26-bf2.4/kernel/drivers" and do a "find ./ -name par*" and if found nothing.

I'm new to Debian (and to this level of changes to the kernal or loading modules) and really need some help here.

Thanks

It seems as if you don't have the parralel port (I assume?) module. If it's also not enabled in the Kernel, you need to grab the Kernel sources ( not sure if special ones for Debian exist), and compile the module for it.
