queue is currently unuseable on Debian. The potato package of it does very nasty things to /dev/tty, subsequently breaking any other package that needs to do things with tty's (e.g. screen, xterm) Whether this is a generic problem with queue I do not know. Nevertheless, I've filed a critical bug report against it. It's a shame; it looks like a fairly nice free alternative to LSF which is, IMHO, by far the best load sharing and batch queueing system around. A tad expensive though... Tim.
