A month from now we'll see this in BLFS-Support.

I'm trying to get my foomagic wireless card working IAW the BLFS book,
but I can't seem to get it. I tried everything in the book, and I've
followed it precisely, but still no luck. There is nothing on the
foomagic web site to help me get it running with Linux and I've googled
but nothing really of any value came up.
What do I need to do to get my foomagic card working?
P.S. It works great in Windows.

Here I just have to disagree.
Until we added one working CUPS driver (gimp-print) as an example to the book,
we had a lot of "CUPS doesn't work" mail on BLFS-support. So the key point is to
show the big picture to the user, and indicate that he needs a driver, possibly
from beyond BLFS.
