Yeah, i figured this was the problem. The driver/card only registered the following schemes: RSA, DSA, DH, DES-CBC, DES-EDE3-CBC, AES-128-CBC If i understand you and the manual correctly, no matter what the card supports, crytodev only supports the list you mentioned above? How do you read such a list. Does that mean a scheme like DES-CBC-SHA could possibly be supported? Or can only the 2 seperate schemes of DES_CBC and SHA1 be accelerated? If the latter, is there a way to find out what schemes different cards will register before buying them? :) Some cards have their own engine, so are seperate from cryptodev.. right? Cor
