SYM-0.9.0 was not checked for Alpha and in fact could only fail with Alpha (The source said 'only i386 supported') :-) SYM-0.10.0 should work on paper for Alpha but needed some trivial=20 changes in order to work for some Alpha. SYM-0.11.0 should be ok for Alpha The sym driver performs MMIOs with a mb() after each access, as it seemed to be the default for the ncr driver. In my opinion, using normal IOs =20 should be more safe for Alpha. If you still want to give the sym driver=20 (0.11.0) a try, you should uncomment the following define in sym_conf.h. /* * Use Normal IO instead of MMIO. */ /* #define SYMCONF_IOMAPPED */ G=E9rard.
