Hi Karl,

I'm (quite) in the same approach as you do currently with a slightly 
difference coming that I learn Xenomai for this too -Thanks Charles btw- 
and use ADXL 335 and Invensense 9150.
For ADXL 335 -it's analog not I2C right ?- you could 1st test it with the 
provided script : http://beagleboard.org/Support/BoneScript/accelerometer/ 
For invensense you are lucky as it's more supported than 9150 : 
http://www.i2cdevlib.com/devices/mpu6050#source . 
Anyway there are quite close so for C/C++ code you have things like this 
that are great : https://github.com/Pansenti/linux-mpu9150

Hope this helps.

David
