That is correct. However, it is not half as complicated as people think,
especially if doing such a trivial change. Here's a guide to do just that I
wrote while I was using Debian.
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=36525 I suggest you try it,
even if just for fun and learning.
Y means integrated into the kernel and always active
M means built as module and activated if required
N means not included in any form
Those configs mentioned seem to be under device drivers > character devices.
You might want to take a look at the other configs as well. Some of them are
fairly easy to select while other remain esoteric for the rest of our
combined lives!
Having said that I'm not sure if having those configs enabled does have any
ill effects. Trusted computing does have very nasty potential uses (DRM etc)
but I doubt Trisquel has any software that would use it for such purposes.
