I've tried everything that I can think of to get this combination
working (ThinkPad 760XD).  When I insert my card, the system thinks
that everything is working, but it identifies the ring as 4 MBps (it's
16 Mbps), and it puts the shared RAM at 0x4000.  You can imagine how
well that works.

The ThinkPad 760s have a TI1130 CardBus controller that's been known to
cause problems in the past.  If anyone has an Auto 16/4 (not a Turbo in
emulation mode!) Token Ring card working with a 2.2.x kernel in a laptop
with this chip, I'd sure love to hear about it.
