I'll answer the first part..

Since jTSS 0.4, a simple event log implementation is provided, which 
stores events in a flat file fashion. Our implementation does not cover 
platform specific requirements such as inclusion of the log files of 
IBM's IMA.

However, the logging class implementation can easily be configured in 
the tss_tcs.ini file; you could create your own implementation of 
TcITcsEventMgr that integrates IMA logs. You could also consider to 
handle ACPI-based logging informations.

I don't know what kind of integration, if any, TrouSerS offers.

Regards,
Ronald
