minus-squareboredsquirrel@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 months agoHmm, intel was sued by the literal NSA for the ME so they now need to include a setting for it. You need to place a specific bit in the BIOS and then it is disabled. This should not cause any problems. But for some reason, which may be a faulty USB flash install, Dasharo Coreboot on a Clevo NV41 loses the TPM when disabling the ME. I have 2 nitrokeys so might just use that as secure element instead of my TPM.
