Maybe this problem is related with ACPI. IIRC, there is no ACPI support in RTAI kernel. If you boot the system with normal Ubuntu kernel (which is not compiled with RTAI), can you see the parallel port with "lspci -v" command?

Hi acemi,

I am a Ubuntu newbie, so I don't know how to boot the system with normal Ubuntu without RTAI. Please tell me how to do this or give me a web link which shows how to do this.

Btw, I had edited the rtapi.conf file to disable the SMI. Does this have to do anything with that?

Anshuman

Hi Anshuman,

Choose the appropriate boot setting from the grub menu (the blue menu at the boot time)
If you send "cat /boot/grub/menu.lst" command's output, I can say you which one is the non-patched kernel
