Joe,

I could take a look for you at the kernel source for the driver you're
looking for. There is plenty of ways to build a kernel on another machine to
get yours up in running. Let me know if you need a hand.

  Bob,

  I would be excited if I thought it was a solution --- The wierd thing is
the piece of hardware that is giving me the fits is at least 7 years old.
I'm sure there is support for it, (dead sea scroll on the net show support
as far back as v 5.x) it's just that it may no longer be a part of the
shipping kernel!  I picked up a 7.1 RH distribution from Compaq for the
Alpha but it comes up short (does not "see the controller").  I'm sure there
is a way, today I picked up a secondary SCSI hard drive to play with
tonight, to plug into the on board SCSI controller...I'll keep you posted.

    The subject line says it all. Since at least two members of the group
have
    Alphas and are having problems with them, maybe this release will work.

    Cheers!
