Hi Marcelo,
Since 2.4.14 the ieee1284 parport functions have worked improperly for some
drivers (CPiA, W9966 and others). Joe <joeja@mindspring.com> was quick to
find the failure. He said he was going to send the patch to you some week ago
and maybe he already have. If it somehow got lost in an internet black-hole
or something I try to also send it to you. It's just a one-liner which
reverts to pre-2.4.14 behavior.
