plustek: Thread: Code constants

When I try to compile the plustek_driver, gcc reports that the following 
named constants are not present:
	PARPORT_MODE_PCECR
	PARPORT_MODE_PCECPEPP
	PARPORT_MODE_PCECPPS2
	PARPORT_MODE_PCPS2
	PARPORT_MODE_PCEPP
	PARPORT_MODE_PCECR
When I checked out the source file that used these constants,(misc.c), I 
saw that they are used as bitmasks. I have grep'ed through the .h and the 
Linux parport code to find these constants, but have had no luck. I am 
using glibc 2.1, RH6.2 base distribution, with the 2.4.0-test1 kernel

Thanks,
Steve McGuire

Hi Steve,

AFAIK Kernel 2.4 should contain the parport code and also the needed
header-files. But to be shure I'm going to get the new sources tomorrow
at buisness, where I have a faster internet connection...

Upon examining 2.4.0-test1's /include/linux/parport.h, it seems that the 
named constants have changed, dropping the PC out of the name.

Hi Steve,

I currently have updated the driver, that it
will compile under kernel 2.4.0-test5.

If you want me to send you the driver, let me
know.

I have checked the parport module and found
out, that they have completely changed this one.
So the changes I have made might not work
correctly. But this will be limited to some 
special hardware components. If you have a standard
parallelport using EPP mode, the driver should work
under kernel 2.4
