There may be some and I'd like to hear from them. The OSS tree is actually not that far out of date now. I have been submitting patches and the basics work now (at least on my board). I am currently working on the 36-bit support. The 36-bit support only works for little endian currently afaics. I'm working to solve the endian problems now. Check out the howto at http://www.linux-mips.org/. There are 3 of us doing Alchemy work who hang out on the #mipslinux irc channel on irc.openprojects.net you're welcome to join us. Joe
