The support period for 10.04 has ended. Try a newer version, like 12.04.
If that's not an option for a reason or another, I'm afraid you're kind
of out of luck with that part. Furthermore, TDE isn't officially
supported with Xubuntu either, so you might be having a hard time to
find people who are running that.

That being said, I will have to ask you to try to find the solutions
elsewhere since you are running an unsupported version with an
unsupported component.

To end this mail with a positive note: good luck with getting it working!

Cheers,
Pasi
