I compiled the kernel (2.2.13) with rather minimal set of features. SCSI
disk and generic support are compiled in the kernel and low level drivers
(ppa, ppscsi, onspec) are compiled as modules. Also parallel port support
(pc-style) is compiled as module because I was aware of the sharing problem.
Parallel printer support and user-space parallel port device driver support
are compiled as modules.
With this message I have attached the kernel configuration I used.
If I have the parport module loaded then onspec module refuses to load. I
don't have anything else parallel port related modules loaded.
The computer I am using with the scanner is an old 486 and I don't believe
the parallel port on the I/O card has any EPP capabilities. Although the
scanner manual (which is rather useless actually) says that EPP must be
enabled it doesn't seem to bother SANE or ppSCSI.
Funny thing is that I tried several times (using three different versions of
the driver) to install the scanner drivers into Windows 3.x/95/NT 4 but only
once I got it working. And even that procedure wasn't repeatable.
