Startech Parallel port (Oxford OX16PCI954)

[barsalou]

I'm trying to use this parallel port using a cardbus port in my laptop.

What can I do to have the parallel port be created?

The serial ports are unneeded so could be disabled if that would help.

Not exactly sure how to go about troubleshooting this problem.

Ideas?

Using linux 3.2.0-29 and getting this in my dmesg when plugging in the board:
