The 2D drivers for Voodoo work fine on Alpha; 3D is proving a little more
challenging! The Glide code is somewhat un-64 bit clean - but myself and
some other people are working on getting it going - watch this space!

The GLX (OpenGL integrated into the X server) already works on Alpha in
the latest XFree Beta release.
