Well, I `think' so, but I do not have a TC Alpha so I can't be sure.  :-)

There is currently a niggle in the kernel about it wanting both
wsdisplays to have a keyboard and I worked around that in my setup
with a 3 line diff.  I'm going to look into that in the coming few
days and come up with something that solves that issue.  I'll also
send out an email about how to set it up, because it is a little
different than the XF86-style setup.

Basically what I've done on my own setup is:

 # cd /dev
 # mknod ttyF0 c 25 256
 # mknod ttyFcfg c 25 511
 # wsconscfg -f /dev/ttyFcfg 0
 # XalphaNetBSD -dev /dev/ttyE0:/dev/ttyF0

to get it going.

Now, I just need to get a second monitor so I don't have to move the
monitor cable to see the other screen.
