Description of problem: Looking through /var/log/messages I keep noticing the following error: - hpiod: ParDevice::nibble_read failed: Input/output error I don't have a printer hooked up to this machine, so I can't say if it's affecting my ability to print. It doesn't seem to be causing any other problems for me though. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): hplip-0.9.8-6 Additional info: VMWare Workstation 5.5.1
I think this must be to do with being run under VMware. I don't see that message in /var/log/messages here, on a machine without a parallel port printer connected.
