Token Ring NIC

Hi all

I have just gotten hold of an Intel TokenExpress NIC which I want to use
instead of a crap NE2000 clone that I am currently using. The TokenExpress
card has a UTP port which I will plug into the 8 port 10mbps hub that I have
also just got. The rest of the LAN connects via BNC and I want Linux to be
able to still talk to everyone else.

+---------------+ UTP +--------------+ BNC +----------+
| Linux |<------->| Hub with |<------->| Rest of |
| TokenExpress | | Transceiver | | Network |
+---------------+ +--------------+ +----------+

There seems to be no support in Linux for token ring networks, is this
right?

Thanks in advance
