(New to this list, please redirect me if need be...)
I just grabbed NetBSD/alpha for the first time, and cannot locate
the X11 diffs mentioned in the README.files. Only the toolchain
diffs appear to be on ftp.netbsd.org.
Can someone tell me what the XalphaNetBSD server is? The readme
suggests it is XFree86, but the binaries don't include an
XF86Config or more than the one server, which doesn't seem to
understand a TGA-2 (I believe Digital UNIX 4.0a..c is supporting
only TGA-2 and the S3-Trio, so there are going to be a lot of
them out there...). I believe the Digital Linux group put out a
server for each of TGA-1 and TGA-2 boards for Linux using
XFree86, but is there anything for NetBSD?
Is ddb something likely to appear on the Alpha port (or a kernel
debugger of any sort for EB164, PC164)?
