I have just installed FreeBSD on my computer and am generally clueless
about the whole thing, and I need some help. I have a panasonic printer,
and lpq and lpr don't know it is there. I have no idea of where to start
on writing or installing printer drivers for BSD, I would greatly appreciate
any help.
I also have a Digicom softmodem hooked up on my machine that BSD also
ignores, I have played with kermit and can't get anywhere. If it is incompatible
I can still send it back. It is on port Comm2. I don't know where that is in
BSD configuration. Please help
No clue,
Brett Ellis
