Could someone with both alpha and x86 on unstable give this a try?  It's
been a while since 2.0.4 in sarge was released, and the first reply to
my bug was, "This may have been fixed along with other 64-bit issues in
2.2.x".

Just for the information of any other Alpha Nautilus APB users, here's
the diff vs. sarge 2.6.8 generic config which makes it work (though DMA
doesn't seem to work):
