This is great!
Let me and the rest of the graphics team know if we can help in any way.
I have no problem enabling evdev support in ppc64 (or any other arches) 
if it's tested at least a little.
The only reason I only enabled it for i386 and amd64 is that those are 
the platforms I have available myself.
