Description Pascal Billery-Schneider 2011-05-25 17:11:34 CEST 
During boot, here is what is diplayed:

/home is password protected: ************
modprobe: FATAL: Error inserting padlock_sha (/lib/modules/2.6.38.7desktop-1.mga/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-sha.ko.gz): No such device

My system runs: 2.6.38.7-desktop-1.mga

How reproducible: allways.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot with encrypted partitions

There is no loss of function apparently.

Hello, is this bug still valid ?

(and sorry for the big delay)
Comment 2 Pascal Billery-Schneider 2011-10-04 19:13:08 CEST 
The message still appears (kernel 2.6.38.8-desktop-5.mga) but there is no isssue.
Comment 3 Thomas Backlund 2011-10-25 11:26:30 CEST 
This is not a bug.

When using encryption, all encrytion modules are loaded to try and enable hw acceleration if available.

In this case the padlock-sha simply reports it cant find any hw to support, hence the "No such device".

Yes, this could maybe be fixed better, but for now it's all we got.
