Thanks. I modified the Device::ParallelPort::drv::linux module, and in the init() function I added the code:
$this->{DATA}{DEVICE} = "lp0";
before the "linux_opendev" call, but the result is the same: I can't set (and probably get) the data bits (this is the result of your script almut):
Data port: ff 11111111
Control port: ff 11111111
Status port: ff 11111111
set bit 0 to 0
read bit 0: 1
set bit 0 to 1
read bit 0: 1
set bit 0 to 0
read bit 0: 1
set bit 2 to 1
read bit 2: 1
Bit 0: 1
Data port: ff 11111111
set data 'a' (0x61 01100001)
Data port: ff 11111111
set control 4 (bit 2)
Control port: ff 11111111
Status port: ff 11111111
I tried to change "lp0" in this->{DATA}{DEVICE} to "/dev/usb/lp0", but nothing changed...
I think that my usb adapter is not so compatible with Linux or maybe it's not a really usb to parallel port adapter...
