SuSE Linux: Versions since 5.1
Olicom PCI Tokenring card
under Linux.
However the standard kernel doesn't support this card.
/unsorted/patches/kernel-patches.tgz
on the first CD
several patches can be found, that we haven't included into the kernel. Also a driver
for Olicom Tokenring cards can be found there.
installpkg .../unsorted/patches/kernel-patches.tgz
/usr/src/kernel-patches/oltr-2.0.33.gz
cd /usr/src/linux; zcat ../kernel-patches/oltr-2.0.33.gz|patch -p1 -s
Olicom PCI 3136/37 16/4
card.
The ring speed can only be set with the DOS configuration utility. The default is 16 Mbit.
If you're using a kernel with the version 2.0.34, you will get an error when patching the file Space.c
.
You should then insert the following line manually into /usr/src/linux/drivers/net/Space.c
:
extern int oltr_probe(struct device *dev);This driver was manufactured directly by Olicom. Further information can be found at Olicom Token-Ring driver for Linux.
