What version of Postgres are you running? I have both 7.0.3 and
7.1 running on XLT 366 Alphas w/o problems. They are both running stock
Debian 2.2 with 2.2.19 kernels. Since I have done a lot of testing and
work with getting Postgres running on Linux/Alpha, these are manual
builds. I have never tried to use the Debian packages or even looked into
what patches they may add on.
I would recommend downloading the most recent, stable version from
www.postgresql.org, and compiling/installing that. If you are still having
trouble, let me know more about your setup and I will try and help. If you
don't have any more trouble, then there is a problem with the patches
applied to create the debian package. Bug (pun intended :) the package
maintainer. TTYL.
