Create /dev/parport0 on Debian Squeeze

It seems Debian Squeeze doesn't create the /dev/parport0 device by default, so in order to create it you have to manually run (as root):

mknod /dev/parport0 c 99 0
chmod a+rw /dev/parport0


Also, you need to have loaded the parport_pc module, which you can load with:

modprobe parport_pc

Cheers !
