ACPI PnP on Intel MU440EX

Hi,
I have trouble with ACPI PnP on one of my machines (Intel MU440EX motherboard made in '98). ACPI PnP doesn't detect built-in parallel port (PNPBIOS does and the port works because I use it to print regularly). I know that I can turn ACPI PnP off by editing .config or using pnpacpi=off boot parameter. I just want to report this problem before PNPBIOS support is dropped (as written in kernel docs).

I have no experience with kernel development or debugging but lots of experience with userspace development in C so you can ask whatever information you need.

Regards,
Martin Doucha
