Sorry, but your patch is very wrong.
If you have a look at the Makefile, you'll noticed that savelogo-alpha.c
is really a link from savelogo-i386.c, so the problem should be elsewhere.
I can't understand why this link isn't created for you though.
See this extract from the Makefile:
savelogo.c:
ln -sf savelogo-i386.c savelogo-alpha.c
ln -sf savelogo-$(ARCH).c savelogo.c
Anyway, I really want you to test DrakeLogo on alpha, since I can't test
it myself (I don't own an alpha :( ).
Tell me if it works as it should.
Thanks,
