so today i decided to check up on my system. so i used rkhunter and got tons of warnings. then i tried chkrootkit and got nothing. ran
rkhunter -u
rkhunter -cand got the same warnings. so could this be a rootkit? im running 12.04 and updated recently.
rkhunter log in attachments.

You can just use the code tags instead of attaching a tar.bz2 file. Paranoia runs deep in this forum, so you're likely to get a few more views that way.
Without looking at the file, rkhunter throws tons of warnings after updates, especially kernel upgrades. You have to create a new baseline after every significant update to manage the false positives. Did the kernel update recently?

yeah, upgraded the kernel yesterday. guess that must have thrown stuff off. anyway i ran rkhunter again and looks like this stuff is all false positives.
