Yes to the latter. chkrootkit doesn't support any special changes in the
2.6 kernel yet. This has been discussed before and should be in the
archives. Run '/usr/lib/chkrootkit-0.43/chkproc -v', note the process IDs
which are listed, and then via the /proc/$PID system examine the processes
which are listed. You'll find that these are false positives, which
are hidden, and 'ps -m' (and other options) don't find them either.
