I found a cheap SCSI drive and got my other PWS500a (el segundo) to
work. I put my nVidia card in and made a kernel with a built-in nouveau
driver. The nouveau framebuffer console works fine.
Gentoo refuses to acknowledge VIDEO_CARDS="nouveau" on my alpha. I see
how USE flags can be masked in profiles, but I don't know how video
cards are masked. I'm sure someone could tell me quicker than I can
figure it out myself.
Is nouveau being prevented because alpha can't run it?
Am I missing some obvious answer?
Adios, DW
