Its driver when uncompressed shows > i386.rpm files. I've installed linux_base-8 but some messages appear up when If it tries to communicate to the USB stuff directly instead of being just a filter which outputs a printer language which can be saved to a file too, it will probably not work, as there's no linux-USB emulation. linu_base-8 is outdated. The current default linux base port is linux_base-fc4. > trying to install i386.rpm files by using rpm commands...and now? There's rpm2cpio and then you can extract it with cpio. Using rpm when we have our own ports collection to track installed file is superflous, and as we will never have everything correctly registered in the rpm database (when we would use it additionally) anyway (as we delete some linux stuff for various reasons), we don't install rpm at all (makes various ports stuff much easier and prevents some nasty misbehavior when rpm is not used as needed).
