[chef] struggling getting started

[Craig White < >]

Following the Quick Start guide (Ubuntu 10.04)

$ knife client list
ERROR: OpenSSL::PKey::RSAError: private key needed.: no start line

$ ls -l /home/cwhite/chef-repo/.chef/
total 20
-rw-r--r-- 1 cwhite cwhite  526 2011-05-19 10:52 knife.rb
-rw-r--r-- 1 cwhite cwhite  426 2011-05-19 10:30 tti.pem
-rw-r--r-- 1 cwhite cwhite 1679 2011-05-19 10:30 tti-validator.pem
drwxr-xr-x 2 cwhite cwhite 4096 2011-05-19 13:26 unused
-rw-r--r-- 1 cwhite cwhite  426 2011-05-19 12:37 white_n_az.pem

seems like it should work but I don't have a clue how to resolve this and 
Google wasn't of much use here.

Anyone have a cluestick for this noob?
