This server does NOT build on the Alpha. Not just FreeBSD/alpha, but AlphaLinux and Tru86 also. The issue with using the text-only xf86config is that it does not know about moused's sysmouse. Thus you either cannot use moused, or you must hack the /etc/XF86Config file xf86config creates to specify sysmouse. Sigh..
