Anyone else running *nix on an Alpha?

Ive been running it on a Samsung 164UX (aka Ruffian, 21164 533MHz) board for a while now (originally RH7.x, then Debian Stable, Sarge and now SID). I always have such problems getting DRI working on my PCI Radeon 9000 (somewhat thanks to AGPGart being a requirement, but Intel tailered module). Matt

Ah well, lost the snowflake title already! Goal 1 at the moment is to get Garnome and Firebird .7 built. Taking a bloody age...

Then, back to DRI support. Goal 2 is to build one of the Quake games. I just think it would be cool to have a system designed for serving and other "important" things playing 3D accel Quake!
