Exclamation Parallel port chip & interrupts

I'm using the parallel port on a touch-screen PC to control part of my Hi-Fi system. But I need to be able to generate an interrupt from the ACK signal on either negative OR positive edges (the PC default is negative-only; but if it can be changed, I can change the polarity on each interrupt, to wait for the next pulse-edge [I want to measure pulse-widths]).
Can anyone tell me the port's chip type number? It will probably vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, and maybe over time too (progress!), but is probably still register-compatible with some "industry-standard" chip. If I know the chip type I can look up its data sheet to see how to program the interrupt edge polarity.
Many thanks,
Daniel
