|
|
yesterday i was watching tv, usually my computer screen blanks after 15 minutes, so the screen was turned off.
i was sitting about 5 meters away from my box, the screen was blanked, and suddenly the screen turned on.
this made me very paranoid if my box got owned by possibly attacks from like Russia or China.
wireshark + netstat + iftop + aide shows everything is ok but i am still not sure if my box got owned.
Question: do i need to do reinstall of the Gentoo system? |

Could the mouse have moved? Table gets bumped... Door slammed hard... Maybe a truck went by and shook the ground? _________________ Many think that Dilbert is a comic. Unfortunately it is a documentary. |

So yeah. I don't think you got hacked. _________________ ..: Zucca :..
