Query: DE-600 parallel port NIC

Hi there,

Been trying to get D-Link DE-600 portable parallel port adaptor
going, on 2.4 it is detected but cannot claim the interrupt, on
2.6.13+ it says the port is busy.


On both kernels I need to turn on ISA to make the NIC visible,
that's easy to fix and a patch sent recently. But I wonder what
other traps & pitfalls to expect?

The DE-600 works under win98se in the target laptop[1] with win95
driver, is detected (minus irq) in another box [2] with 2.4.31-hf5.

Thanks,
