At long last, a chance to powerdown the Alpha and change out the video
card. Tried the SiS 6326, and it wasn't a *complete* disaster. SRM and
booting gave me no problems, and things work fine in text mode with a
2.6.17 kernel. X11 is quite another kettle of fish :-(. After X gets
done trashing
Yes. The X is was still broken last time I checked it. But there was
few upgrades installed by apt-get today.. Lets see if it fixes
anything..

Just a followup... Got everything installed and it seems to be working
with the TGA2 hardware. Notable omissions from the list of updated
packages are "pm-dev" and "lbxproxy", which seem to be stuck at package
version 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 on the Alpha.
Anyone know if there's a new "lbxproxy" on the ho

You can always pin a specific version in "/etc/apt/preferences". According to
the manual, if you specify a priority over 1000, then apt will downgrade:

Sorry, Bob, I know neither good nor bad of that card or server,
The motivation for attempting the upgrade is a missing "sis_drv.so" file
in the 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 xserver-xorg package. If anyone can explain why
this was omitted from the Alpha package, I might feel better about the
upgrade pain I'm now contemplating. In particular, if someone knows
that a SiS 6326
