Next, I am trying to connect a printer in vmware 2.0.4 (under linuxulator). I point vmware (known on bsd as /dev/lpt0) to /dev/parport0 to try to bridge windows printing in vmware over. It doesn't find /dev/parport0. When trying /dev/lpt0 it tries to use procfs, and can't find /proc/sys/dev/parport/parport0/ ... Wondering if there is a fix/workaround. I have linux_base-7.1_1, FreeBSD 4.7-PRERELEASE. ------------------------------------------------------- -- Dylan Carlson [absinthe@pobox.com] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
