Comment 10 for bug 229703

Hi... I need some serious help here

I'm currently on hardy, with trousers 0.3.1-4 on my Synaptic that refuses to go away.
it gives me this error all the time

"E: trousers: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1"

Stopping Trusted Computing daemon: invoke -rc.d: initscript trousers, action "stop" failed.
dpkg: error processing trousers (--purge);
 subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status l
Starting Trusted Computing daemon: device driver not loaded, aborting

How can I solve this? What should I do? I tried adding deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-proposed universe into my "Third-Party Software", and enabling "hardy-proposed" under Ubuntu updates... but I fail to see the version 0.3.1-5 coming out

and when I tried tpm_version in my terminal, i get this error:
Tspi_Context_Connect failed: 0x00003011 - layer=tsp, code=0011 (17), Communication failure

when i check /dev/ there isnt any tpm folder either
There doesnt seem to be any driver installed for my tpm chip.

I'm having a ST v1.2 TPM on my motherboard... how can I install the driver?

I've just started out linux a few days ago, I really hope that it wont be the last
