<P>
In umax_pp_low, the following code is wrong:
<BR>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;/* me check if parport is does ECP */
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;mode = IEEE1284_MODE_ECP;
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if (ioctl (fd, PPSETMODE, &amp;mode))
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;{
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DBG (16, &quot;umax_pp: port '%s' hasn't ECP\n&quot;, parport_name);
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;}
<BR>
<P>That isn't checking what the port can do at all, but what the driver
<BR>
will let you do. The successful PPSETMODE just means that the next
<BR>
write() you do will cause the driver to write the data out using ECP.
<BR>
<P>The only circumstance under which it might fail really is that
<BR>
<P>(a) the port doesn't have hardware ECP support, _AND_
<BR>
(b) the kernel's IEEE 1284 implementation wasn't configured when you
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;built it
<BR>
<P>Then:
<BR>
<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;/* we try to set EPP 1.7 first */
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;mode = IEEE1284_MODE_EPPSL;
<BR>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;if (ioctl (fd, PPSETMODE, &amp;mode))
<BR>
<P>The comment is wrong.
<BR>
<P>If you want to find out what the _hardware_ can do, you want to use
<BR>
the PPGETMODES ioctl (and treat errors as 'not telling you').
<BR>
<P>Tim.
