Madge changed the chipset in the 3140v2 and it is not supported in the oltr
driver.

Madge does have Linux drivers but it's for an older kernel.  I ended up
using an IBM Token Ring card and Redhat linux.  The drivers are already
included in the latest kernel.

According to Madge they do not ship the 3140v1 anymore.  Good luck.

Subject:	Madge RapidFire 3140v2 tokenring adapter

I was wondering if somebody already got the Madge RapidFire 3140v2 
tokenring adapter to work under FreeBSD 4.6.

The oltr driver currently in FreeBSD doesn't recognize this specific card 
(even if I modify the pci detection it still fails within the binary 
driver).

When looking at Madge's website it seems that they have an open source 
Linux driver (http://www.madge.com/downloads-software-other.asp). My 
question is, is somebody already porting this driver to FreeBSD or is 
there some other solution to get this card to work?
