I just updated my intrepid machine on virtualbox and it allowed me to do
cat /dev/mem, make sure you are doing it as root.  But even if intrepid
is stopping the user from running the command, then it still won't stop
someone from rebooting the machine and putting in a cd with a minimal
memory footprint and dumping strings from memory to get the passphrase.
