Unfortunately this list is not for resolving printer issues. Your best bet is to first contact www.freebsd.org (I think that's the right URL) for info on USB printers or if they even support them. Best bet would be to use the old parallel connection either on board your system or get a PCI port

I'm having trouble getting the LCD backlight to blank on my I-Opener. I'm using XFree86-4.2.0-8 from the RH 7.3 distribution. I had it working with a previous version (4.0.1?) from RH 7.1 but now it doesn't return from blanking. I never did get DPMS to work so I was using the bios APM to send it

I though the SVGA server was a 3.3.6 server (4.x.x uses drivers) are you sure you are using an XF86Config with the right format for 4.x.x? (the format is different from the 3.x.x format a way to check is to see whether there is a section pointer (3.x.x format) rather than a section input device
