	   I'm not sure there is a driver for sparc parallel ports.


	there has been for several years now:

		revision 1.1
		date: 1998/09/21 21:20:47;  author: pk;  state: Exp;
		LSI63854 based parallel port driver skeleton.

	thought it wasn't necessarily known to work until more recently.

I'm using it to drive my printer, although it does have a 
tendency to panic the machine if you terminate the process
that has the parallel port open.  I really should fix that
one of these days....
