Have you noticed that there are Linux shared libraries in UFR_II_Printer_Driver_for_Linux_Src_v170_uk_EN/sources/cndrvcups-common-1.70/libs and i have hard time thinking how this can be mixed in a compiled *BSD program. Presumably a better option is to use a completely binary Linux driver under Linux emulation, the remaining problem being to shove the different parts in the appropriate place for a *BSD system. -- Michel Talon
