The Gentoo/Alpha project is responsible for keeping the Gentoo distribution updated and current for the Alpha platform. This primarily includes keywording packages, porting software, and making new releases. The Gentoo/Alpha project aims to provide a usable environment for both desktops and servers.

Currently, there is only one option for Java VM and Java SDK on Gentoo/Alpha. The packages are called compaq-jre and compaq-jdk.

Admittedly, you can find faster 64-bit systems out there, like amd64. However, that doesn't mean that Alpha systems are useless. The following are a few good reasons why you'd want to install Linux on this sort of hardware: You can turn an old computer into something useful. Older Alphas make great routers and servers. Their desktop performance isn't that bad either.

On the Gentoo Forums there are several arch specific categories like Gentoo on PPC and Gentoo on Sparc. There is no Gentoo on Alpha category because there simply isn't enough Gentoo/Alpha activity on the forums to warrant one. All Alpha related posts should go in the Gentoo on Alternative Architectures category.

If any of your questions weren't answered here, you can try other resources like the Alpha Handbook or our project homepage. You can also ask us at #gentoo-alpha on irc.freenode.net, Gentoo on Alternative Architectures Forum, or on the gentoo-alpha@lists.gentoo.org mailing list.

You can find out about the current status of the Gentoo/Alpha project via status reports. These reports inform the public about what we've been up to. New status reports will be posted about once every 6 months. Current and past status report can be found on the Status Reports Project page. Not yet! HP will be taking orders for new Alpha systems until October 27, 2006 and Alpha options and upgrades until November 2, 2007. See their planning page for more details.

I'm not a Gentoo user so I can't provide a package for Gentoo. However, Mike Kelly has released a Gentoo package for DenyHosts.

Learn how to work with Gentoo: installing software, altering variables, changing Portage behaviour etc. This chapter explains the "simple" steps a user definitely needs to know to maintain the software on his system. USE flags are a very important aspect of Gentoo. In this chapter, you learn to work with USE flags and understand how USE flags interact with your system.

If you are unsure of something or have any questions regarding forum specifics, more info about the rules, or basically any question in general, contact one of them via the Private Message function of the board.

The brain wave frequency range from 8 – 14 Hz. in which there is focus and the beginnings of a state of balance. In chemistry, the first position from a designated carbon atom in an organic molecule at which an atom or radical may be substituted. The mathematical estimate of the return on a security when the return on the market as a whole is zero. Being the highest ranked or most dominant individual of one's gender, especially as regards social animals.

The OpenSSL upgrade path is difficult. wget with USE=ssl (default) links against libssl. When upgraded, that breaks - which means wget breaks - which means if you don't have the wget source in distfiles, you're stuck.

Gentoo/MIPS is a small project within the Gentoo Foundation, responsible for looking after the MIPS port of Gentoo Linux. We currently look after two main sub architectures of the MIPS family specifically: Silicon Graphics systems and MIPS-based Cobalt servers.

alpha-Lipoic acid is a short-chain fatty acid that contains two sulfur atoms. It is a natural compound that is produced in small quantities in all human cells, and functions as a component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase and alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase mitochondrial enzyme complexes. These enzymes are extremely important in oxidative glucose metabolism. In other words, these enzymes are necessary to convert glucose into cellular energy (ATP).

The Alpha Hydroxyacid is known for its anti-aging effects and the fact that it is not toxic to skin. The AHA acids are derived from fruits and flowers that help in making skin smoother and look healthier. Alpha hydroxyacids are naturally occurring acids like lactic acid from sour milk; citric acid from citrus fruits like oranges and lemons; and glycolic acid from sugar cane.

Alpha Academic Services is located on the 1st floor of the library. Turn left at the bottom of the stairs and go through the glass door. When coming from the elevator, turn left, then left again past the AV desk and the Gallery. Alpha Academic Services will be through the glass door on your right.

Leave: the Gentoo penguins start to leave O'Higgins when the sea ice starts to build. This date differs each year. 2004 the last Gentoos were seen in early May. The main brood season is from November until February, but even this can differ from year to year.

It depends on the type of SPARC, but chances are yes. One exception seems to be the SPARC based laptops from Tadpole, particularly the newer models. If you have a working Tadpole on Gentoo/SPARC, please contact us and let us know the details on the model and anything special needed to get it to work. The Gentoo/SPARC team maintains a hardware compatibility list for SPARC64 systems.

A Gentoo is a species of a small, fast penguin, pronounced "gen-too" (the "g" in "Gentoo" is a soft "g", as in "gentle"). The scientific name of the Gentoo penguin is Pygoscelis papua. The name Gentoo has been given to the penguin by the inhabitants of the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas).

A computer image normally has red, green, and blue values for each pixel. The image can also have an alpha value for each pixel. If an image has an alpha value for each pixel, it is said to have an alpha channel. The alpha value specifies the transparency for the pixel. Normally, alpha channels are 8 bits, and 255 is opaque while 0 is completely transparent. Alpha blending is the process of combining two pictures using the alpha values to produce a transparent effect.

YES. All Marines reporting to MSG Bn will be in their Service “A” uniform upon reporting. To clarify, it is NOT acceptable to come to MSG Bn in civilian attire and request to change into Alpha's. All Marines will stand a uniform inspection immediately upon reporting into MSG Bn. Don't be the Marine that reports out of uniform. When they say "immediately" they mean it.

Yes, thioctic acid is the term originally given to alpha-lipoic acid because the compound contains sulfur (thio). Since this compound is a fatty acid (lipid) and therefore soluble in fat (lipid), it is more commonly referred to as alpha-lipoic acid. In Germany, alpha-lipoic acid (thioctic acid) has been safely prescribed for treating diabetic neuropathy for over thirty years.

Glucotize was developed over a 6-year period. It is the result of a systematic evaluation of many different controlled-release formulations. This process was tedious, time consuming, and expensive. However, it was necessary in order to identify a formulation that offers the most efficacious preparation of alpha-lipoic acid commercially available.

Alpha is a level of Brain wave frequency. Meditating at that level connects you with your subconscious Mind. This is a very powerful level of Meditation. It has been proved that the Meditation practiced by ancient Siddhas of India and Alpha Meditation are one and the same.

The Trainer and Managing Director Dr.Vijayalaksmi Panthaiyan has been initiated into various levels of meditations by ancient Siddhas of India. She combines scientific information regarding meditation with the energy of ancient Siddhas in her workshop. Her research on the effect of meditation on a person’s mind has given her innumerable inputs which she incorporates in her workshop.
