Good morning (o;
Have now in my config:
puc* at pci? dev ? function ? # PCI "universal" comm. cards
lpt* at puc? port ?
and in files.macppc:
attach lpt at puc with lpt_puc
file dev/pci/lpt_puc.c lpt_puc
Now it shows up correctly:
puc0 at pci0 dev 15 function 0: NetMos NM9805 1284 Printer port (lpt)
lpt0 at puc0 port 0: interrupting at irq 25
Now...what is the common char major/minor number for it?
is:
crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 20, 0 Nov 12 22:43 /dev/lpt0
correct?
When I try accessing the device I get:
g3# cat > /dev/lpt0
/dev/lpt0: Operation not supported by device.
