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 staticly 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. + +Errata: +For anyone wondering where to pick up the SysKonnect adapters please browse +to http://www.syskonnect.com + +This driver is under the GNU General Public License.
