Having a few new problems trying to get LinuxCNC to work!

The parallel port is on the motherboard, yet LinuxCNC can't seem to detect it.

I now get the error: (regardless of if parport_pc, lp, or ppdev are present)
Error: could not insert module /usr/realtime-3.4-9-rtai-686-pae/modules/linuxcnc/hal_parport.ko: No such device

and dmesg output of:
[ 7411.404993] RTAI[sched]: timer setup = 999 ns, resched latency = 2944 ns. 
[ 7411.417163] RTAI[math]: loaded.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Did you enable the paraport in BIOS?

What do you see with
cat /proc/ioports
?

Wrong address set in Bios - too easy!
