Hi,

I've an Epson Stylus Color 500 and at boot time I've the following
messages :

with 2.2.20pre (and so well with 2.2.xx) :
------------------------------------------
May 9 13:14:54 debian-f5ibh kernel: parport0: PC-style at 0x378
(0x778), irq 7 [SPP,ECP,ECPEPP,ECPPS2]
May 9 13:14:59 debian-f5ibh kernel: parport0: Unspecified, EPSON Styl
May 9 13:14:59 debian-f5ibh kernel: lp0: using parport0
(interrupt-driven).

With 2.4.4-ac6 and 2.4.xx, I get :
----------------------------------

May 9 14:19:44 debian-f5ibh kernel: lp0: using parport0
(interrupt-driven).

... parport0: Unspecified, EPSON Styl
why is the message truncated -------^ ?
what means "Unspecified" ?
