 I have seen this before!  Even though you didn't really give enough
 information to figure out the problem (what does your kernel configuration
 file say, and what does dmesg output for those lines...), I think I can
 guess what your problem is:
 
 controller      ppc0    at isa? port? tty irq 7
 #                                     ^^^ is very likely missing (or different)
 controller      ppbus0
 device          nlpt0    at ppbus?
