David Mosberger-Tang <davidm@AZStarNet.com> contributed patches to make
svgalib run on Linux/Alpha. It is known to run with #9 GXE.

No reports of other hardware working or not exist yet. This is REAL ALPHA
software. I don't know any installation details. In theory you just recompile
it out of the box (When you are using Linux/Alpha you are a hacker and should
be able to create a shared lib w/o problems). I don't know any details, in case
of problems please contact David.

From what I saw you might have to use static libs. That's no real problem,
a simple make in src or gl will create a static lib. You will have tweak the
Makefiles in demos/utils minimally such that the static libs are found by
ld. Also you will have to install the libs/tools by hand (if you install
the static libs in a well know location, you'll probably not need to change
makefiles to compile apps.
