  I'm racing you :)

  The current file breakdown I have in mind is:

  powermac/
           adb_if.m      - adb bus interface
           adb_hb_if.m   - adb host-bus interface
           adb.c         - generic bus probe/attach code

           adb_kbd.c	- driver for notebook/external adb keyboards.
			  exports syscons kbd interface.
           adb_mouse.c   - trackpad/mouse driver. creates /dev/ams0,
			  sysmouse-compatible device.

           adb_hb_cuda.c    - CUDA host bridge driver
           adb_hb_core99.c  - core99 PMU host bridge driver

  The big complication in all of this is that the keyboard has to be 
able to operate in polled-mode to allow DDB to work.

later,

Peter.
