Hi,
When I run
modprobe parport_pc io=0x378 irq=7
and found
parport_pc: Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones
in dmesg output and of course my paralel port does not use irq.
Have no way to tell parport_pc to use IRQ? With 2.6.8 the above command is fine.
Search the parport.txt in the Documentation dir and found nothing changes.
Please help me to set IRQ for my parport. Thanks.

This was fixed about 7 weeks ago AFAIK.
See this patch:
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/cset@41d83429hQNe4oGG8g1CyWe0jdp79g?nav=index.html|src/|src/drivers|src/drivers/parport|related/drivers/parport/parport_pc.c
so using 2.6.11-rc[1,2,3,4] should fix it for you.
If not, please report the exact kernel log messages.

Thanks , I am using 2.6.11-rc4 and having no problem. Cz I have searched the lkml
and found nothing so don't know it is a known problem. Sorry for the noise. :-)
