Hi Gustavo,

it seems, that some parport routines are active, which shouldn't...
There are two possible ways to solve this:
1.: Load parport_pc module, then load again
or
2.: search the following lines in fi
plustek_driver/h/plustek_scan.h

/*......................................................................
.......
 * for port operations
 */
#if 0

and replace the '0' by a '1', then recompile, reinstall and reload
the driver. 

Hope this helps
Gerhard
