==== Virt-mem Tools 0.2.8 Released ====
[1] ref
[[RichardJones|Richard W.M. Jones]] announced[1] the release of [http://et.redhat.com/~rjones/virt-mem/ virt-mem] 0.2.8. Virt-mem provides a set of dom0 or host tools which leverage [http://www.libvirt.org libvirt] to facilitate the inspection of domU or guest kernel information. Commands include 'virt-uname', 'virt-ps', and 'virt-dmesg' for example.
 
This latest version has been reworked to have direct access to basically any kernel structure. This will allow a more rapid fullfillment of outstanding feature requests such as memory usage information, network interface listings, etc.
