Sebastian:

I finally got everything working , the patch you suggested did the trick! Thanks
hugely!!

The bad news is that when I tried to  rebuild kernel-2.2.17 or 2.2.18 with
CONFIG_ALPHA_AVANTI
set (which also sets CONFIG_ALPHA_EV4) in the config file and the patched traps.c file,
I had other
problems. The ncr53c8xx scsi  driver had timeout problems and I could not boot the
machine with the modified
kernel.. So, I set CONFIG_ALPHA_GENERIC  and manually removed "ifdef  CONFIG_ALPHA_EV4"

statement from the patched traps.c. I realize that this is not the best way to handle
the problem, but
it worked.

Thanks to you and all the others for the help.

With warmest regards,

Sun
