I have gentoo running an alphaserver 5305 (EV56). Seems to run beautifully, I'm using a vanilla SMP kernel though, I haven't tried the gentoo sources yet. I didn't even have much trouble with the Mylex raid card. Some of the goodies in portage are masked on the alpha architecture though. The only thing I've had to unmask so far was openldap, and that went in nice and easy. As a side note, should I simply add a bugzilla entry for builds I find that work on this machine?
