The Intel devel board had a silicon bug making the PTP function useless. But even if the bug got fixed, still the PTP function was very limiting. I never got any feedback about the IXP465 PTP stuff, and so I doubt whether anyone is really using the Linux PTP driver on the IXP465, but you never know. Thanks, Richard
