Just tested http://www.vanheusden.com/aed/ on my box, and it feeds random data into the pool from your audio speakers quite decently.
Turns out that you can't just write() to /dev/random, you have to be a bit fancier than that to feed entropy back in.
Would make a nice CPAN module at some point. But for me, running that deamon on a system with an audio card and no console improved the performance of /dev/random dramatically.
Worth giving it a shot stas!
