  Hi,

 I have Linux SuSE 6.3 and need to have two different LP printers working
and I have two Parallel cards installed.
The trouble is my Bios sees them on bootup as 278,378 which I think
 is OK and I'm not sure where Linux knows about your printers.
 The second Parallel card I installed is pin configured for 278 and Irq 5.
 My kernel is configured with Parallel printing as a module.
 Is there a place I can tell Linux that I have the second card?

Thanks ahead,

Dave Willcox :-)
