I also saw that many Gentoo packages are not *supported* for Alpha, but they build. Is there some place where I can tell when I manage to compile a package and test it ? Maybe in this list ? |

like Red Hat and Debian and the support was submitted back to the Xfree |

Matrox Millenium[II], Permedia 2 based boards and ATI Radeon 7500 all |
