Bug Description
Linux cb01 2.6.28-11-generic #40-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 3 17:39:51 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
A.K.A: Ubuntu 9.04-beta, today's date.
Processor Specific (VIA processors with padlock engine) - found on C7M-ULV
Auto-load problems:
The kernel modules:
via-rng
padlock-aes
padlock-sha
are present in the kernel module build but are not being auto-loaded on boot.
Specific modules:
via-rng: can be loaded by "modprobe" or listing in /etc/modules
padlock-aes: can be loaded by "modprobe" or listing in /etc/modules
padlock-sha:
*) If loaded with "modprobe" - terminal will hang, requires "ctrl-c" to continue
*) if loaded by listing in /etc/modules - will "hang" the boot at "loading manual drivers"
Need padlock-sha fixed and all three added to the auto-load automation for supporting VIA processors.

Possible hint:
sha256_generic and sha1_generic are shown as loaded (after modprobing padlock-sha)
**BUT** They are not shown in the "depends" of padlock-sha by modinfo command.
