MRG-based ADB driver for the PowerBook series has not been completed yet.
It had worked on former kernel (before 2/7/97), but it doesn't on current.
I guess this problem is caused by current pmap function. I may have to 
make changes to some sources to be fit for current pmap function.

This is odd... 
I've confirmed that current kernel works on my PB550c, but I've not 
confirmed if current kernel works on PB1xx series. I'll check if 
current kernel works on PB180 later.

Later,
