Hi!

>>> Possible LKM Trojan installed found!!!

Please keep in mind, that LKM seems to be a false positive many times
with chkrootkit, because chkrootkit in this case seems to test only
against processes that don't show up everywhere (afaik a diff with ps
and /proc). Please rescan after a reboot or so and look at this:

Manfred Sindhoff wrote 22 May 2004 in

 "The lkm check is known to produce false positives for NPTL kernels
 (2.6 kernels or 2.4 with NPTL patches). Common multithreaded programs
 which will show this behaviour are slapd, mozilla and apache2 if you
 use one of its threading MPMs."
