I have not tried WM, but I have successfully made a world on my AXPpci with apache, tcsh, sendmail, screen and KDE-1.1. Everything worked like it works on PC's, nothing special. The only bad thing is that there is no egcs-port for FreeBSD/alpha yet. This will propably change. The machine is stable (running rc5days since 20 days) and did not show any abnomalies.

No. I'm totally ignorant with respect to Linux, so I did not use the box until I installed FreeBSD on it. Linux for Alpha seems to be more fully supported than FreeBSD/alpha, so you might be better off to keep with that. As usual, if you choose FreeBSD, you'll have to trade off some of the wealth of support for the CVS tree, the ports collection and the feel of BSD. You'll know what this is worth to you. > BTW, how about the PC-CARD drivers? X-drivers for the TGA? I don't know.

I found some little bugs, and one more embarrassing, but maybe I am just dumb: -- netboot did not work. The netboot program could not find the ethernet address, and, if I set it up manually (with setnetbootinfo on another station), it did emit bootp requests, that were answered (according to tcpdump) but netboot claimed it never received any answer. Maybe my firmware is too old, or something like that. Sending "boot.flp" through the net instead of "netboot" did not work too, so I had to boot the Multia under Linux and dump boot.flp on the harddisk, and then boot from it (the floppy drive is out of order). -- All my "post-installation configuration" disappeared into an unknown void, and I had to edit rc.conf at the next boot. Not a real problem. -- I wanted to add a getty for the vt220 I used for installation, therefore I modified /etc/ttys, and did "kill -HUP 1". This did not work; but a reboot fixed it. Apparently, init does not reread /etc/ttys when it receives a HUP signal. -- Here comme the annoying problem: whenever I recompile and boot on a new kernel, that has not the "GENERIC" configuration, dmesg, kvm_mkdb, netstat -r, and probably other utilities die with a segfault. The machine is otherwise functionnal. The only change I seem to be able to do in the config file without triggering this effect is commenting out the 'cpu "EV5"' line. Is this a known problem ? Or am I just doing something completely the wrong way ? I have also some questions about modules. Namely, the distribution comes with several .ko files in /modules. I am wondering: -- are modules automatically inserted when needed, or must I do an explicit "kldload" ? -- how do I compile some parts of the kernel as modules ? I would like to get the smallest kernel as possible (I only have 24 MB ram, this is not much on a Multia) -- is there anywhere a more accurate and complete documentation than the handbook, that I could read instead of bothering this list ? Anyway, thanks for the good job and for any information. --Thomas Pornin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-alpha Tue Mar 2 3:15:13 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-alpha@freebsd.org Received: from gjp.erols.com (alex-va-n008c079.moon.jic.com [206.156.18.89]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AA84D14C40 for ; Tue, 2 Mar 1999 03:15:11 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from gjp@gjp.erols.com) Received: from gjp.erols.com (localhost.erols.com [127.0.0.1]) by gjp.erols.com (8.9.1/8.8.7) with ESMTP id GAA02693; Tue, 2 Mar 1999 06:14:35 -0500 (EST) (envelope-from gjp@gjp.erols.com) X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.1 12/23/97 To: Doug Rabson Cc: alpha@freebsd.org From: "Gary Palmer" Subject: Re: new kernel -> panic In-reply-to: Your message of "Tue, 02 Mar 1999 10:01:46 GMT."

I removed the marketing buzz (which shortened the announcement significantly) and also deleted Compaq's claims to be responsible for support (such as donating Linus's first Alpha system) that really came from Digital Equipment Corporation. Despite their attempts at historical revisionism, I think they're to be commended for the direction they're taking. Next thing you know, they'll be releasing source for CPML and em86 :-) HOUSTON, March 2, 1999 Compaq Computer Corporation today announced the availability of ProLiant 1850R, ProLiant 1600 and ProSignia 720 servers preloaded with Linux through Compaq's channel partners. Earlier this year Compaq announced a similar Linux-ready capability with the AlphaServer 800 and AlphaServer DS20 systems. Further adding to its portfolio of Linux offerings, Compaq also announced the availability of Linux-enabled models of the AlphaPowered Compaq Professional Workstation XP1000, the world's fastest workstation. Today, Linus Torvalds received an AlphaServer DS20 from Compaq, which he will use as his development platform for Linux. Compaq further boosted the unmatched performance of its AlphaServer 800, AlphaServer DS20 and Professional Workstation XP1000 systems running Linux by introducing the Compaq Portable Math Library (CPML) for Linux on the Alpha platform. A beta version of CPML will be available free on March 15, 1999 at the following URL: http:www.unix.digital.com/linux/cpml.htm. Compaq has performed hardware validation and certification for Linux on select Alpha and ProLiant server platforms and will provide customers with Linux-ready systems including the option of preloaded Linux from Compaq's channel partners. Additionally, Compaq Services and Red Hat have agreed to collaborate on services for their mutual customers. To further ease the deployment and installation of Linux on its platforms, Compaq will announce new Linux-focused ActiveAnswers solutions in 2Q99. Compaq ActiveAnswers provides online tools and technical information to plan, deploy and operate business solutions. These solutions will enable Compaq channel partners and customers to access the latest recommended configurations and installation methodologies for Linux on Compaq platforms.

If Compaq is interested in helping the *BSD's, that would be a very nice also. Right now, NASA/Ames has two dual processor 8200s. They can run a second processor, but it isn't that shaken out yet. I know that Jason and Bill Studenmund are working on fixing the zs driver to be more MI/MD so that the zs off the GBus on the 8200 can be a real device so that the drop back into the PROM for console service can be eliminated (along with the real problems this runs into with the PROM code and various mmu mappings).

I've not heard of this before. It smells like a VM problem but its strange that only one program is affected. Does this happen every time you reboot (maybe stale contents in the cache)?
