I have a choice?  TR support for some other cards (even IBM ones, we have
had fair luck with the PCI token ring cards from Big Blue) would be kind of
nice.  Kind of out of my league, as far as writing the drivers goes - I'm a
hardware hack, born, bred, trained and raised.  The stuff that gets used on
it is to me non sequitur.  I just want the confounded thing to work....

either the motherboard or scsi card are conflicting. I'd go for the
motherboard, try turning everything off in bios.

The scsi is not a card, it's part of the motherboard.  I have everything
turned off in bios, except the scsi card.  No IDE devices in the box
whatsoever.  Parallel is off, serials are both off, the (useless) USB ports
are off, BIOS is set to the "fail-safe" mode, with everything slowed to a
crawl.

Trying a newer LINUX, as was suggested just prior.  SuSE looks promising.

Deutsch.)

Danke, viel mal, und auf wiederlesen.
