I suppose I'll just have to let it go then, I know that Madge have released drivers for Linux (shudder) and have noticed on their site that they have the source code for the drivers (I think) but I'm assuming that nothing can be done to port that (I'm not a great knowledge base about drivers that's for sure ;-) Oh well... thanks anyway :-\ Rgds.

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.

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.
