I thought that a printer used an irq. So when someone asked i said it did
but when i checked it seems to be polling. I don't know if it performs
better or not when polling but I tryed to get it to use an irq.
I made lp a module and so on. I've a module and it loads fine.
But insmod doesn't let me set the irq.
After looking in the source of insmod I discovered that lp should contain
a symbol parm_irq but it doesn't it contains irq. So I looked in the
ne2000 driver and saw that there is something called MODULE_PARM.
Shouldn't be there a call to MODULE_PARM in the lp device?
