[libvirt-users] Difficutlies with lp port

Hello, I'm using libvirt on debian as host and Windows XP Home as guest. I would like to pass the /dev/parport0 to XP to attach a printer. I use virt-manager. When I add a parallel port as a "dev" type I got this conf file: .... <parallel type='dev'> <source path='/dev/parport0'/> <target port='0'/> </parallel> .... And this command line: .... -chardev tty,id=charparallel0,path=/dev/parport0 -device isa-parallel,chardev=charparallel0,id=parallel0 .... The first parameter is "tty".Should not it be "parport"? Anyway I never see any parallel port on the guest with these options. Even starting kvm from the command line. While is seems to work immediatly using the kvm option: "-parallel /dev/parport0" Where i've made a mistake? Or how can I just tell libvirt to use the "-parallel" option instead. Thank's for your help Anselmo Luginbühl
