Subject: linux-0.99.10 detects non-existing lp1 & lp2

Hi again!

I have just another problem with the current linux version (0.99pl10):
During the boot process I get the following messages:
        lp_init: lp0 exists (0), using polling driver
        lp_init: lp1 exists (254), using polling driver
        lp_init: lp2 exists (254), using polling driver

But the machine has just one printer port configured as lp0 (irq 7, 0x3bc).
As I have a lot of trouble with this machine (it's a nfs and print server
for a small network and it hangs very often since the last update to pl10 &
net-2),
I am not sure whether there is a possible irq problem or not.
So, how can I tell the kernel that there is just lp0 in my machine?

Any hints are welcome.

Cheers
        Andreas
