  • Thread-topic: VTPM: incompatible device naming between BE device and vtpm_managerd??

I downloaded Xen unstable on 07.02.2006 (so it's quite new) and wanted
to use the VTPM implementation. Somehow I found out that the VTPM BE
driver creates a device named /dev/vtpm, but the vtpm_managerd listens
on the BE device named /dev/vtpm0. So when I wanted to start the
implementation "out of the box" it couldn't work at all. Is there a
specific reason for this incompatible device names? If not, then it
might be reasonable to adjust them.

Regards,
Anna
