Hello, I have searched the net and found nothing good. I did set my mainboard BIOS to use ECP transfer mode (dma 3 & irq 7). I edited my kernel to: device ppc0 at isa? flags 0x8 irq 7 (is there a way to declare the dma I want to use?) and when I boot I get: Jul 1 10:36:42 delta /kernel: ppc0: <Parallel port> at port 0x378-0x37f irq 7 flags 0x8 on isa0 Jul 1 10:36:42 delta /kernel: ppc0: Generic chipset (ECP-only) in ECP mode Jul 1 10:36:42 delta /kernel: ppc0: FIFO with 16/16/16 bytes threshold Jul 1 10:36:42 delta /kernel: ppi0: <Parallel I/O> on ppbus0 Jul 1 10:36:42 delta /kernel: imm0: NIBBLE mode unavailable! and my zip-100 drive does not get recognized. Is it possible to use vpo in ECP mode?? EPP and compatible modes are just too damn slow. thanks, Paulo Roberto __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!
