Certainly. However at this moment RIPENCC driver is not compiled in
by default. (I mean Debian package.)
I tried to recompile ntpd yesterday a few times but it failed because
vital C header files are missing. (timepps.h and others)
Now I slow down and I try to figure out the next step.
I did not test generic PPS driver yet...
