[bschleusner]

ok, I gave up on the pyParallel module, portio is working perfect.

Please add "Solved" to the title. People periodically ask about parallel port access so adding "Solved" will point them here in the beginning. It would be good to know to try portio if pyparallel does not work.

Did you check the permission on the actual device? I was doing stuff on the serial port and it was giving me errors. So I went into /dev/ttyS0 and changed the permissions so that I could read and write to it as "other."
