Every time that I reboot this shows up in my daily logwatch - --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- WARNING: Kernel Errors Present intel-lpss: probe of 0000:00:1e.0 failed with error -22 ...: 2 Time(s) nouveau: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -12 ...: 2 Time(s) tpm_crb: probe of MSFT0101:00 failed with error -16 ...: 2 Time(s) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
According to dmidecode my CPU is -'Version: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7500 CPU @ 3.40GHz' so I would guess that I do need 'intel-lpss' but not need anything 'nouveau*'? Is that correct please? But what about 'tpm_crb'? I've done 'lsmod | grep tpm' and 'dmesg | grep -w tpm' and 'dmesg | grep -i tpm' but nothing is showing up, so I'm guessing that I don't need 'tpm_crb' either, am I correct? I've been using [fn:1] as a guide for me to investigate TPM. I'm sorry if it seems like I'm asking very basic questions, but I just want to be sure that I'm not going to ask my machine to commit suicide by me actually removing them! Thanks Sharon.
