It was stable on Digital 164LX with 82559 fxp, 53c575 siop,
and Matrox Mystique 4M PCI.

But, there exists a problem.
Use of accelaration feature of MGA stops X server.

So, I have to use

        option "ShadowFB"

to void these unstability.
It is faster than option "NoAccel".
But somewhat slow compared to accelarated mode.

Is there anyone who are using XFree86
with accelarated mode on alpha ?

Thank you..
