Need help with PCI parallel card

Level D
I bought a PCI parallel card to use with a JTAG adapter, also got the driver CD and installed it on windows, but the problem is the program(depends on a cfg file in which the address has to be saved) which m using depends on a particular address so that it can communicate with the parallel port, here is the below output of the file

File: parport.cfg

#

# Parallel port wiggler (many clones available) on port 0x378

#

# Addresses: 0x378/LPT1 or 0x278/LPT2 ...

interface parport

parport_port 0x378

parport_cable wiggler

all i came across is the info that 0x378 and 0x278 address comes with mostly onboard parallel ports.

I can also try with ubuntu if needed, but again have tried almost everything. Below is the output of the lspci -v

LINUX

04:05.0 Serial controller: Device 4348:5053 (rev 10) (prog-if 02 [16550])

Subsystem: Device 4348:5053

Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 20

I/O ports at e800

I/O ports at e400

Kernel driver in use: serial



I also came across this info,

sudo bash

cd /lib/modules/2.6.32-29-generic/kernel/drivers/char

rmmod lp

cd /lib/modules/2.6.32-29-generic/kernel/drivers/parport

rmmod parport_pc

insmod parport_pc.ko io=0xd000 #replace 0xd000 with whatever you see in your system above

but when i enter "rmmod lp" , it shows the below output

ERROR: Module lp does not exist in /proc/modules

Any kind of help is very much appreciated.
