Hi
I'v recently compiled a new kernel 2.4.14 in turbolinux 7.

However I cannot get the printer working with the new kernel.

When I type dmesg, parport0 is listed with ML4500, which if my printer model.
However I keep on getting connection errors.
I'v checked the kernel, and everything in the parrell section is selected.
Is there anything i'm missing in the kernel?

lpd complains that there is another printer used on the spooler.
i'm using webmin to configure the printer.
It all worked fine in the orginal 2.4.5 kernel that came with turbolinux.
