Did you run depmod -a?
Is it present in the output?

There are three ways of enumeration as far as I can see from the driver's code:
- by short driver name "tpacpi" (not likely our case)
- by DMI matching (only for old BIOS'es)
- by ACPI ID

So, does the ACPI contain one of the listed IDs?

#define TPACPI_ACPI_IBM_HKEY_HID        "IBM0068"
#define TPACPI_ACPI_LENOVO_HKEY_HID     "LEN0068"
#define TPACPI_ACPI_LENOVO_HKEY_V2_HID  "LEN0268"
?
