AFAIK the requirement only applies to Windows? And hardware vendors care about working on Windows, news at 11. Show me where "Microsoft is now pushing toward TPM being required in Linux."
I fail to understand your's or the GP's point. I think you think "We got 'em!" On what? A vibes violation? A TPM, or something like a TPM, seems pretty sensible these days.
- ilyt 4y agoIt moves process from "put any distro and just install it" to "open the bios, find the right options to change or disable and then you can actually install it".
- mustache_kimono 4y agoWhy would this even have to be the case? Linux will work on hardware with a TPM chip. It will also work on hardware without a TPM chip. If you're saying one day, some distro may choose not work on hardware without a TPM chip, take it up with that disto (in your imaginary future)? It's not Microsoft's problem?
