XFree86-Server-Snap on Alpha

X Server 4.3.99.15 nearly works.

"XFree86 -probe" & "XFree86 -scanpci" now work and detect
the video card and suggest the driver properly.

However, 'xf86cfg' still locks up the system when it scans
for the proper driver.

"xf86cfg -textmode" generates a proper 'XF86Config' file
but running 'startx' locks up the system.


It's strange that "pciconf -lv" sees my Permedia2 & s3
Trio64 V2/DX at pci 0:2:0 (which it is) where as X sees it
as pci 1:2:0.    -cheers, S.C. Gehl
