truecrypt-6.0a to 6.1 - error: "No entry for device-mapper found."

/proc/misc: No entry for device-mapper found
Is device-mapper driver missing from kernel?
Failure to communicate with kernel device-mapper driver.
Command failed

that's the full error I get when trying to mount my encrypted drive - I'm sure there is a simple fix for this but no one else seems to have the same issue, I compiled from the source but still got the same error.
