After upgrading kernel 2.6.7 to 2.6.9-rc3 my parallel printer can't be found 
anymore. Same situation with rc4. The .config file is the same as for 2.6.7. 
Starting kernel 2.6.7 makes printer available again. Printer is a Brother HL 
1430, which never made troubles before. Bios is set to ECP/EPP.

With kernel 2.6.9-rc4-mm1 the parallel printer is visible again.

Ah, good to know.
My parallel port had also disappeared, also with 2.6.9-final.
I get the message:
	lp: driver loaded but no devices found

In /proc/ioports there is a line:
	0378-037a : winbond parport

The parallel printer disappears from 2.6.9-rc2 to rc4. 

lp: driver loaded but no devices found

The rc-1 and rc4-mm1 versions are ok.

It looks like the patch from Olaf Hering <olh@suse.de>
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0408.0/0792.html
causes the problem.

A patch from Andrea Arcangeli <andrea@novell.com>
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0409.3/1515.html
corrects the problem.

It looks like the Linus tree only has Olaf's patch.
Andrew's tree (mm) has Andrea's patch.
