Hi,
I got the kernel to build on mandrake's alpha! The changes that were
needed are:
- Comment out patch #54 and #55. These patches are alsa and pcmcia
patches, and installing them when the alsa & pcmcia sources aren't
installed (like on the alpha platform) causes problems. Maybe these
patches should be reqrouped with other alsa / pcmcia patches...
- Pressed enter at all the questions that were asked ;-) (.config files
aren't up2date)
- # CONFIG_SOUND_VIA82CXXX is not set --> this driver didn't compile,
see buildoutput:

Next I'm going to start working on getting alsa stuff working in the
alpha-kernel. Since kde2 requires alsa support this might as well be
turned on on the other platforms (sparc*, ppc).
