Hi,

which distro do you use ? (I'm guessing it's a debian based)

it may be not too hard to compile your own kernel based on ayufan's source package if there are any available; there are plenty of documentation on how to do it (a quick search with "debian compile kernel" gives me the common docs.)

At configuration step, just need to browse to reach the relevant item, then run the build, wait, install the new kernel, reboot, pick this kernel on boot, then rng-tools might work. You should also see the module loaded if you have done things right (with 'lsmod' command)
I could provide some assistance if you need, I'll also have to play a bit with mine  Blush.
