I get the fwupd on these machines, but from what I've read the
TMP is a
separate chip on these machines and is not programmable. I checked the
Lenovo web site under support and for these models. The page starts out
with an "Out of Support" banner. Though there is a BIOS update available
(only implemented through Windows), there is no TPM update available.
They do seem to make TPM updates for the newer machines. Oh well back to
budgeting for newer machines. I can't really complain. I bought these
for a little over $100 each as manufacturer rehabbed about 7 years ago.
Now I'll just buy some rehabbed i3s or i5s. These can be repurposed for
something where TPM doesn't matter. They still run fine after all.
Did I miss why you can't just disable TPM? I doubt that you're using it.
