That didn't seem to help. The modules still failed with agp.
But after doing 'rm -r /usr/src/sys' and reinstalling kernel
sources, the problem went away.
I have a strong feeling that the module compile problem was
related to the bad clock setting when I installed FreeBSD,
even though I removed sys/compile/... and did fresh configs.
Something was probably confused by the file and directory
dates of 1919.
Anyway, thanks for the help. Now I can start having fun!
The reason I got this Alpha is to get some code 64-bit clean
in preparation for the new architectures.
