[Bug 52596] Re: My paralell port isn't recognized

[Mildred]

I'm just testing Knoppix to see if it works, and it works.
Distribution : Knoppix 5.0.1 live-DVD
boot options : knoppix lang=fr desktop=gnome

$ dmesg | grep lp
[...]
lp0: using parport0 (polling).
lp0: console ready

$ lspci -vv -d 1409:7168

Is there any way to make it works in Ubuntu ? I don't want to reboot each time I want to print a document :(
