I added: controller ppc0 at isa? port? tty irq 7 on my configuration last night (after a more thorough inspection) and it worked fine. What is the purpose of this versus nlpt (which is now also found)? On my PII machine with a AL440LX motherboard, I don't need this line and everything is found just fine. The real bummer for me is that I have a Lexmark 5700 printer, which has a proprietary command set and will not work under FreeBSD (without more work than it is worth). I may have to pull out my old HP600C and get it working again.
