The Linux SysKonnect Token Ring driver works with the SysKonnect TR4/16(+) ISA,
|
|
|
|
|
SysKonnect TR4/16(+) PCI, SysKonnect TR4/16 PCI, and older revisions of the
|
|
|
|
|
SK NET TR4/16 ISA card.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Latest information on this driver can be obtained on the Linux-SNA WWW site.

Many thanks to Christoph Goos for his excellent work on this driver and
|
|
|
|
|
SysKonnect for donating the adapters to Linux-SNA for the testing and
|
|
|
|
|
maintenance of this device driver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Important information to be noted:
|
|
|
|
|
1. Adapters can be slow to open (~20 secs) and close (~5 secs), please be
|
|
|
|
|
patient.
|
|
|
|
|
2. This driver works very well when autoprobing for adapters. Why even
|
|
|
|
|
think about those nasty io/int/dma settings of modprobe when the driver
|
|
|
|
|
will do it all for you!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This driver is rather simple to use. Select Y to Token Ring adapter support
|
|
|
|
|
in the kernel configuration. A choice for SysKonnect Token Ring adapters will
|
|
|
|
|
appear. This drives supports all SysKonnect ISA and PCI adapters. Choose this
|
|
|
|
|
option. I personally recommend compiling the driver as a module (M), but if you
|
|
|
|
|
you would like to compile it statically answer Y instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This driver supports multiple adapters without the need to load multiple copies
|
|
|
|
|
of the driver. You should be able to load up to 7 adapters without any kernel
|
|
|
|
|
modifications, if you are in need of more please contact the maintainer of this
|
|
|
|
|
driver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Load the driver either by lilo/loadlin or as a module. When a module using the
|
|
|
|
|
following command will suffice for most:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# modprobe sktr
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will produce output similar to the following: (Output is user specific)

|
tr0: SK NET TR 4/16 PCI found at 0x6100, using IRQ 17.
|
|
|
|
|
tr1: SK NET TR 4/16 PCI found at 0x6200, using IRQ 16.
|
|
|
|
|
tr2: SK NET TR 4/16 ISA found at 0xa20, using IRQ 10 and DMA 5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now just setup the device via ifconfig and set and routes you may have. After
|
|
|
|
|
this you are ready to start sending some tokens.
