I just installed your printer driver kit and it works! I was using an
older version of the same driver but I think the disabled probing helped.
I decided to start with a stock conf.c and add my mouse driver AFTER
the lpt entry. Maybe the null entry /*E*/ helped??

Anyways,  my kernel has no scsi, no NFS, and no ethernet  and  the printer is 
io 378 irq 7, and a logitech busmouse driver on irq 2. Anyone wanting
such a naked creature (for its mouse and printer of course) can mail
me and I'd be happy to put it in somebody's incoming for a few days.

Thanks Andrew :)!!
