Or do I need to follow the current branch for this? X in -current should work on (some?) PCI alphas, I don't know to what extent or which drivers have been tested though. The glint driver should work ( I assisted in making that happen a while ago ), possibly the radeon driver, but that's about it, as far as I know. Please test and report. That said, there is a whole lot of weirdness in Xorg's alpha support which I'd like to clean up, and TurboChannel support is completely missing. I don't have any alpha hardware though. have fun Michael
