Hello alltogether

Recently I switched to Fedora as my main operating system. Now I came
across a problem as I tried to access some encrypted files. For
encryption I used ecryptfs, which is why I installed the ecryptfs-utils
package. This comes along with trousers and in particular with tcsd.
Unfortunatelly I get the following error during boot:

insmod: error inserting '/lib/modules/2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64/kernel/drivers/char/tpm/tpm_atmel.ko': -1 No such device
Starting tcsd: 	[FAILED]

If I try to start the daemon:

sudo /etc/init.d/tcsd start
tpm_infineon            7725  0 
Starting tcsd:                                             [FAILED]

Also if I try to insert the module manually, I get

sudo insmod /lib/modules/2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64/kernel/drivers/char/tpm/tpm_atmel.ko 
insmod: error inserting '/lib/modules/2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64/kernel/drivers/char/tpm/tpm_atmel.ko': -1 No such device

Im am running fedora 14 and have simply no clue of what
to do to solve the problem. On ArchLinux (which I used before) I
didn't need tcsd.

If you need further information I would be happy to provide that.

Thanks in advance
