   Grepping through the kernel source, I find no indication that such a
   module actually exists, and it certainly isn't under /lib/modules.

parport_lowlevel is a symbolic name to represent the appropriate
parport_? module. You need to alias it to parport_pc in conf.modules. 
  
then a modprobe parport_pc should bring it all up.

(methinks this is all mentioned in
src/linux/Documentation/parport.txt :)  )

   Any ideas?
  
   RedHat 6.1, kernel 2.2.12-20, lpr 0.48-1.
  
regards,
