+      The <literal>security.rngd</literal> module has been removed.
+      It was disabled by default in 20.09 as it was functionally redundent
+      with krngd in the linux kernel. It is not necessary for any device that the kernel recognises
+      as an hardware RNG, as it will automatically run the krngd task to periodically collect random
+      data from the device and mix it into the kernel's RNG.
