Re: using the parallel port

Here is what I could see of comedi related stuff in my dmesg...
[4294696.658000] comedi: version 0.7.70 - David Schleef <ds_at_schleef.org>

now i get:
# comedi_config /dev/comedi0 comedi_parport 0x378,7
Configure failed!: Input/output error
Check kernel log for more information
Possible reasons for failure:
  Driver not found

kernel log = dmesg?
