I posted a commented ADEOS-IPIPE patch for 2.6.18 for PPC end of last 
week (see https://mail.gna.org/public/adeos-main/2006-09/msg00009.html). 
Unfortunately, the PowerPC Linux kernel is a fast moving target these 
day due to the merge ppc, ppc64 -> powerpc and there are a few 
significant changes between 2.6.17 and 2.6.18, IIRC. But it's still 
worth a try.
