| Kernel driver i2c-parport-light |

| |
| This driver is a light version of i2c-parport. It doesn't depend |
| on the parport driver, and uses direct I/O access instead. This might be |
| preferred on embedded systems where wasting memory for the clean but heavy |
| parport handling is not an option. The drawback is a reduced portability |
| and the impossibility to daisy-chain other parallel port devices. |
| |
| Please see i2c-parport for documentation. |
| |
| Module parameters: |
| |
| * type: type of adapter (see i2c-parport or modinfo) |
| |
| * base: base I/O address |
| Default is 0x378 which is fairly common for parallel ports, at least on PC. |
| |
| * irq: optional IRQ |
| This must be passed if you want SMBus alert support, assuming your adapter |
| actually supports this. |
