HI

I am wondering if there is any way of using the linux version of print/pips* 
drivers for epson printers on freebsd8.2.

As they stand prints/pip* tree will not compile on amd64 systems (I have tried 
commenting out the i386 only in the relevant Makefile). This may be due to 
assembler code in cbtd_wrapper and possibly other issues.

It would be very useful to have all print/pips available for amd64 and am 
wondering if any emulation gurus may be able to find a way of making them 
operative using the linux distribution.

Thanks is advance

David
