Did somebody try to install TPM driver http://thinkwiki.org/Tpm under
T4x and especially T42.

For me the compilation work correctly (exept some warning) but when I
try to load the module I get this Error

FATAL: Error inserting tpm (/lib/modules/2.6.11-rc2/misc/tpm.ko): No such device

and in dmesg :

tpm: Atmel TPM version 1.1.0.6
tpm: StartUp failed
tpm: PhysicalPresence failed

I had this with vpddecode
