tlp works fine (with 1.6 and current). I understand that the de-driver
is deprecated.

Hmm... d o n ' t   e v e n  t r y  i t. Sorry. The built-in cirrus
is unbelievably slow. I mean, reaaally slow. My suggestion is to go with
serial console or sacrifice one of the PCI-slots for a decent adapter
(which might be tricky...).

I'm not sure how much the 1000A differs from 1000 but FWIV I'm running
-current with an AS1000 (DE500 network, built-in siop and an aic7880).
I'm actually writing this message via a webmail-interface, via
mozilla running on the alpha, displayed on a dual-head sparc 4.

If possible, try -current. The performance improvement over 1.6 is
quite amazing.

I've never tried Tru64, but is that just the subsystem or some sort
of card ?
