Hi,

--enable-directio seems to be used for two different things: First,
SCSI DMA (from adapter to user memory). This is documented in
README.linux. Second it's used in umax_pp*, probably for direct
parport access.

As these two are quite unrelated I would prefer to change the name of
the latter to e.g. --enable-outb (or similar) and to document it in
the README or if it's linux-specific, the README.linux file.

Bye,
  Henning
