plustek: Thread: OpticPro4830P with SuSE 7.2 : insmod error

Hi,
I tried install the plustek-driver for my
OpticPro4830P scanner, but I get an "insmod" error:
This is what happens:
 reunion backend/plustek_driver# make load
/sbin/modprobe pt_drv || exit 1
/lib/modules/2.4.4-4GB/misc/pt_drv.o: init_module:
Success
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module
parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters
/lib/modules/2.4.4-4GB/misc/pt_drv.o: insmod
/lib/modules/2.4.4-4GB/misc/pt_drv.o failed
/lib/modules/misc/pt_drv.o: insmod pt_drv failed
make: *** [load] Error 1

I tried the following versions of the driver:
plustek-module-0_41_5.tar.gz
plustek-module-0_42_9.tar.gz
plustek-sane-0_36_38.tar.gz
plustek-sane-0_44_10.tar.gz
all produced the same error.
I made the changes in modules.conf as indicated
in the instructions.
My parallel port's address is: 
0378-037a parport0
037b-037f parport0
so port=0x378 should be o.k., I guess.
Could anyone help me?
Thanks,
Fred

Hi,

I think this is again a BIOS parport setting problem, make sure
to have at least SPP or EPP enabled in the BIOS, NO ECP

This ain't probably another ECP issue!
Check your BIOS setup and make sure to have at least EPP enabled
NO ECP...
