Well, that's an old problem with kernel 2.2.x -> 2.4.x... reminds me I
should add this to the config-examples. In 2.2.x (before parport) the
names for the ports where fixed. Now with parport, the names are just
aliases, and normally, lp0 is assigned to the first available port
(normally 0x378)... this is btw explained in the man page sane-mustek_pp
I'd recommend to read :)

so try port 0x378 instead...
