Correction to InfoWorld’s report on Linux/Alpha GS

greybeard writes: “InfoWorld is reporting release of the Linux ADK from Compaq. The Compaq site link is http://www.support.compaq.com/alpha-tools/. The InfoWorld article mentions that software support isn’t available for the AlphaServer line. This isn’t correct. Compaq offers both hardware and software support for Linux on Alpha and Intel Compaq servers up to the ES40 (up to 8 833mhz cpus) AlphaServer. It’s only the GS-Series AlphaServers (32cpu) that haven’t been qualified, yet.

Details on support for Linux is available here :
