Yes, a Powerbook (started with a Psimo G3_AT_500, now an AlBook G4_AT_1.25).
USB-Audio Emagic EMI 2|6 and the internal screamer for on-the-road use.
works (almost) perfectly with kernel 2.6.0-test9...
Troubles generally seem to come frome endianess-issues and a certain
x86-centredness of linux apps, especially concerning the optimizations
(mmx- and sse-assembler is often there, ppc and altivec seldom).
But still those are great machines to run Linux on :-)
Have fun*
Niklas
