anyone successfully using KDE4 on Alpha?

Since the upgrade from KDE3 to KDE4, "plasma" reliably segfaults on KDE
startup.  See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=541402
for the details.  If any Alpha users are able to run the KDE4 desktop,
please reply to the list with the machine model and video card you're
using: maybe a pattern will emerge from the fog :-).

Still having issues with gnome-settings-daemon too, but that's another
story.  At least GNOME works as well as it ever did, modulo the daemon
problem(s).  firefox-3.5.1 built from the mozilla.org sources works too.
Life isn't all bad on the Alpha, and I don't mean to imply otherwise.
