Yeah, it's pretty awesome. It makes the Sheevaplug catch up with the 
Atom that is 466MHz faster and 4x more power-hungry.

What I'm pondering now is something like a dkms package for the 
cryptodev kernel module, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that 
dkms is a non-Fedora RHEL thing. What do you guys think would be the 
best way to approach it, especially since we don't have "standard" 
kernels at the moment?
