Currently i use the following patch since i only tested the epat to ensure
that shared parport/serial irq would work.

For serial in 2.4.20
http://function.linuxpower.ca/patches/patch-parport_serial-2.4

For shared IRQs (probably would need hand patching)
http://function.linuxpower.ca/patches/patch-parport-irq1

Perhaps google, he did mention that he had netmos support in and then
backed it out again.
