Do you have a current CVS of xsrc?  Aymeric Vincent made some necessary 
changes to xsrc/xfree/xc/config/cf/NetBSD.cf just yesterday.  That, and the 
changes to alpha_video.c make a solid server for this PWS 600au + Radeon 7000 
(after patching, just a 'make World' does it).

I'll send my dmesg, XFree86.0.log, and the alpha_video.c with your bsd_video.c 
changes in it in private mail, as it's a godawful amount of text that 
port-alpha could do without.  ;^)
