This is true, but the instruction were deliberately written not to
favour a particular distribution. But nevertheless it would be great
if you'd write a document about how to install RedHat-4.0 on a
Jensen. If you like, I can put it (or a link) on my Alpha page and
into the FAQ.
You have first hand experience, and see, neither Michael nor me are
very eager about wiping out our hard disks in order to test a fresh
install. So you're now in a much better position now write such a
manual.
There is no X-Server for Linux/Axp and the QVision at this moment, and
probably not in the near future. If you need X now, get an S3 based
card, preferably EISA. But make sure it works with Alpha's firmware.
