Hmm. I don't remember what the newer PowerBooks have, but at least with 
an older titanium PowerBook all devices are supported except wireless 
LAN and that won't be supported by any more recent kernel either. AFAIK 
all G4 PowerBooks have Sun GEM as ethernet adapter which is supported by 
2.6.10. The audio probably isn't, but you can always compile the alsa 
driver separately.
