Hardware That Doesn't Work with Linux

I'm not sure why this is listed as incompatible, as there are drivers [here](http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:339:0:0&emeaframe=&target=http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi&target=http://downloads.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/downloads.cgi&&req=:::::). It should be listed as user-hostile, but that's beyond the scope of this site. The drivers are in a gzipped tar archive, which contains a shell script, which has another gzipped tar archive inlined inside the script, which contains two RPMs. The shell script runs a Tk/TCL gui to install the RPMs. It requires a specific version of Tk and TCL, so it won't run on most distributions. One of the RPMs claims to depend on a specific version of CUPS as well, though it works fine with other versions if you override the dependency and install it.\n
