Linux CUPS drivers under freebsd CUPS - anyone tried ?

[Vladimir Grebenschikov]

Hi 

Does anyone has success experience how to run linux cups drivers (from
vendor) under freebsd cups ? 

I have tried to make work native linux drivers for Canon i850
(in photo-quality mode):

ftp://download.canon.jp/pub/driver/bj/linux/
bjfiltercups-2.2-1.i386.rpm
bjfilterpixus850i-2.2-1.i386.rpm

Packages below looks like Ok, but cups-binaries requires some linux cups
libraries, so does anyone has hints how arrange linux cups driver to
work under freebsd cups ?
