| Text file for the Linux SysKonnect Token Ring ISA/PCI Adapter Driver. |
| Text file by: Jay Schulist <jschlst@samba.org> |
| |
| 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. |
| Please point your browser to: |
| http://www.linux-sna.org |
| |
| 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) |
| |
| sktr.c: v1.01 08/29/97 by Christoph Goos |
| 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. |
