I would be curious what you did, even thought I have something that probbably
works just as well now.. I remember years back having issues with integrated
motherboards parallel ports when trying to use them to do bit banging
monitoring the same as the cheapi2c, all I could get to work reliably was a ISA
parallel port card, but now a days I dont have a machine with ISA slots, so that
wasn't an option this go-round..  If you can dig this up i'd love to see it.. I
know Chris Kennedy who is working on the ivtv driver (Happauge PVR-X50 cards)
gave up trying to get one working and I am sure it has hindered him in making
more cards work properly, so it could benefit more than just my curiosity..
