RE: Kind of a newbie

I used a Madge 3140 and it worked great, however, the 3140v2 does not work.
It has to be based on the Hawkeye chipset I assume for the FreeBSD drivers
to work.

You will have to recompile the kernel with:
device oltr
pseudo-device token

after compiling the kernel reboot you should see it pop up on the boot mesg.

Recently since I can't find a 3140, I ended up getting an IBM 16/4 Token
ring card (Olympic chipset) and am having to run it on the bastard Linux.

Subject:	Kind of a newbie

Hey everybody,
I'm kind of a newbie to the Token Ring world but would like to get
interested. I have recently purchased a Madge Smart 16/4 Ringnode...
mainly for interaction with my Cisco 2503 but would be interested to see
what else it can do...

I looked back on archives and had a look at Madge's site and noticed
only Linux drivers but was wondering if there had been any advances
since then? ie. support for the card. Of course, if anyone needs a card
to test on... they can always use my machine but I doubt that will be
necessary

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Rgds.
