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.

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.
