As I've mentioned above, I let vtpm_managerd take control of the TPM.
In other words, I clear the TPM, run vtpm_managerd, and vtpm_managerd
takes control of the TPM.  I'm using Dell Optiplex 745s.

neon:/sys/class/misc/tpm0/device$ sudo cat ./id
ATM1200
PNP0c31

Manufacturer: 0x41544d4c
TCG version: 1.2
Firmware version: 13.5


Basically, a 1.2 atmel TPM, but I have problems on a 1.1 atmel as well (
in a precision 345).

I have the same problem in all versions of vtpm_managerd, including,
most recently, xen-unstable (as of today) and xen-testing-3.1 (as of 2
weeks ago).

Thanks - I didn't know about this list.
