Jan- I have five VIA/Centaur processor based systems from various eras (PadLock rev. 1 and rev. 2 feature-sets). If you give me a specific scenario to work through, I can probably generate at least some of the data you're looking for. Yes, the padlock* driver-sets are what you need to access the various VIA/Centaur PadLock feature-sets. -JMills -- Jason Mills -- jmills@xxxxxxxxxx -- - -- - -- - -- - -- - -- - -- - -- - - -- Virtual Appliance Partner Enablement Manager -- - -- - -- - -- - -- - -- - -- - -- - - -- Lab Developer & Presenter VMworld 2008 Course Developer & Staff VMworld 2007 Lab 5 Course Developer & Staff VMworld 2006 Lab 3805 Panel Developer & Presenter VMworld 2005 SLN-138a/b > -----Original Message----- > From: linux-crypto-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:linux-crypto-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jan Klod > Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2008 12:00 PM > To: linux-crypto@xxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: VIA Eden HW encryption support users? > > On Monday 25 August 2008 23:30:37 markus reichelt wrote: > > * Jan Klod <janklodvan@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > Is there anyone in this list using VIA C7 / C3 / Eden board?
