[Bug 369850] Re: Cannot set up parallel port printer on Ubuntu 9.04 or 9.10

[Till Kamppeter]

I have modified the cups package now to also load parport_pc when
starting the CUPS daemon, not only lp and ppdev. This change I have
committed to Debian's BZR repository for CUPS, and this is at least a
workaround for the problem reported here. It shgould appear in Debian
unstable and Maverick soon.

I suggest this also as an SRU for Lucid LTS. In Lucid it is perhaps too
invasive to fix this problem via the kernel or udev.
