Actually, a token-ring driver that works with IBM ISA based TR cards is
included in the Linux 2.0 kernel.  I know someone using it, and helped him
try to troubleshoot it (till we found out we needed True-Blue cards, not
clones).

With the real cards, he hasn't had a problem.  Oh, this is 16mbit TR.
