2 Parallel Ports - 1 Intenal, 1 PCI Parallel Port Card not configuring

Hi!I am an old timer from DOS age. I do know Windows but TOTALLY new to Linux or LinuxCNC. I am using an old HP Z210 with 1 integrated Parallel Port (Set to Bi-Directional or EPP/ECP).
I have successfully installed LinuxCNC_2.9.2-amd64.hybrid on the computer. The problem is the integrated parallel port does not register in LinuxCNC. I have checked the net and used some of the suggested commands to find the port. It seems the problem is allocation of parallel port somewhere else. I am attaching the command results. I would appreciate any help.
Regards

When you mean "not register in linuxcnc" what do you exactly mean ? What errors are you getting ?
As far as the OS in concerned the onboard Parallel Port is being detect.

sudo dmesg | grep parport


The issue would appear to be with the plug in card, no driver seems to be loaded.

I would conclude the on board PP is fine, the Plugin Card is the issue. Remove the Plug in card and try a simple config with just the on board parallel port

Try, this will let us see the PCI id of the plug in card and determine what driver, if supported, should be load.
lspci -nv

OP has already run lscpi -vv

lspci -nv will bring up the PCI id as well. From there we can work out driver support. Not that it matter than much, unless the driver sets up any on chip registers.

But I've never had much luck xeon processors, one was with a single cpu workstation class machine and another was with a dual cpu server class with realtime.

I'll see your fuzzy from lack of sleep and raise 2 weeks of flu in the Aussie Summer. lol

Hi!
Yes ... I agree ... The plugin Parallel port card seems not to have a driver installed. I am attaching the results of "sudo dmesg | grep parport" and  "lspci -nv"
Being a novice to Linux the question may sound stupid but how do you install the driver of PCI Parallel Card?
Regards.

I agree the on board parallel port should working correctly at address 0x378 and isn't the problem.

Built in parallel ports will not show up in lspci lists, because they are not part of the PCI bus.

The system isn't picking up the additional card as a parallel port. Is it a PCIe card? I've found PCIe parallel port cards are often buggy and not well supported. But even though it may not be properly configured as a parallel port in the system, it may still work with Linuxcnc. (Linuxcnc doesn't use the system's parallel port drivers.) Try configuring Linuxcnc with the parallel port driver to directly access the ports by their addresses.and if that doesn't work try.
If that fails, your only or best option will likely be to try a different card.
