I'm sorry I cant be of more assistance, But there is nothing more that I can personally and legally do without the support of the Alpha linux/java community, and that of the ( once vocal, and now placated ) i386/linux/java community. gat " His site might be of some help: http://www.voicenet.com/~gatgul/Java.html Andrei > > It would be quite cool if someone sat down to write this function in DEC > > Alpha assembler. > > I believe the Linux folks had a start on an Alpha port at some time. > Someone might want to contact them and see if they have such a thing. > > Nate > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
