With kernel 2.1.36 using parport and ppa compiled ad modules if I run
primes on another loop program that loads the cpu and I try to modprobe
ppa I get:

May 3 01:10:29 arca kernel: Parallel port sharing: $Revision: 1.3.2.4 $
May 3 01:10:29 arca kernel: parport0 at 0x378, irq 7 [SPP,PS2,EPP]

May 3 01:10:50 arca kernel: SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0.
May 3 01:10:50 arca kernel: PPA: bug in ppa_queuecommand

When I kill the process that loads the cpu I get:

May 3 01:10:52 arca kernel: PPA: warning: EPP timeout
May 3 01:10:52 arca kernel: Vendor: IOMEGA Model: ZIP 100

May 3 01:10:52 arca kernel: Detected scsi removable disk sda at scsi0,

May 3 01:10:52 arca kernel: SCSI device sda: hdwr sector= 512 bytes.
Sectors= 196608 [96 MB] [0.1 G.............................

And works fine.
