Ok, I see how the above could be misread easily, since it appeared in
the context it did. But the key to interpreting it is that it is all
past tense; it was meant as a comment to the whole thread.

What I'm saying is that I have no further input. Sorry. Figuring
out how to write device drivers or otherwise access the PCI bus
is not something I have done previously (not for any current Windows
version anyway), and it feels too much like a black hole regarding
time. So, again, sorry if that's disappointing.

That said, I could still adopt the rng-tools package if that would
be any help (but I don't see myself hacking on any new HW features)

Cheers,
Peter
