Hi all,

I have been working with Nicholas Souchu to fix a few issues with the
parallel port zip, especially the zip+ (250 meg version).

I know this is deprecated hardware, but I would like to know if it helps.
The driver should now work correctly in PS2 transfer mode, which in theory
should be twice as fast as NIBBLE mode.  Set the flags for ppc to 0x00, so
the driver will detect all available modes and choose the best one.  Probing
and mode selection has been much improved, thanks to Nicholas' work.

If you want to force PS2 mode, that should work as well.  Please let me know
if you have any problems.

jcm
