Can you please tell me what the device major/minor are I think this is a misunderstanding. My TPM is working just fine but the guy I was replying to seems to have some problems. The old tpm driver (version 2.0) distributed seperately at http://www.research.ibm.com/gsal/tcpa/TPM-2.0.tar.gz did not work for me though. I did not find an obvious problem in it but noticed there is the tpmdd project on SourceForge and got the driver from there. That driver is working just fine for me. > version in the default 2.6.12-rc5.

Still trying to get a grip on git to track the latest kernel and test the TPM driver in there. Anyway, the driver I have is working fine. :) (I am working with an IBM ThinkPad R51 if you care about it). Greetings Torsten
