[NOTE: Please follow-up to linux-m68k or linux-mac68k.] The PB 160 and PB 180 use "PMUv1" ADB, which (as I recall) was working for a while, although I don't remember which kernel series (2.2.x or 2.4.x).
I don't believe the "PMUv2" ADB has ever worked, which is found on the PB 190, PB 520 and all of the Duos. BTW, if you're going to build your own kernels, I would recommend grabbing them from the linux-m68k CVS repository.
