Ahh, geek humor. It means that the parallel port status bits were set to a pattern that the printer driver doesn't understand. If it is was momentary, ignore. If there was a real problem, fix it and ignore. If you have something besides a printer on the parallel port, you have a configuration problem. Perhaps "alias lp0 off" in /etc/modules.conf or somewhere in the /etc/modutils/ tree. HTH, Jeffrey -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
