 Also see, Michael Critchton's "Eaters of the dead", now re-released as "The
 13th warrior" (soon to be a movie), which is also based on Beuwolf.

Or read the original (well, a translation from Old English really) at:

http://english-server.hss.cmu.edu/poetry/beowulf.html

And by the way - the name Beowulf comes from "beow" and "ulf"
(bear-hand, or bear-grasp, desciptive of the hero's terrible strength
that puts fear even in the hideous monster Grendel), so it really
shouldn't be spelled Beowolf* - and the BiCapitalization is certainly
wrong!

Okay, I'll stop now :-)

The debian package of glade has some doc files and a small
example.

BTW, in case anyone wants to know: .deb files are simply
ar(1) archives. You can open them with
ar x file.deb
and you get 3 files, the important one being data.tar.gz
(which you of course open with tar xvzf data.tar.gz).

 
 Thank you

Re: How to disable password for halting?

 I have a silly question - 
 How can I causeshutdown   to not

a comment, and a solution below:

first, i'd advise against doing such a thing. you can always hit
ctrl+alt+delete and have your machine rebooted, if you sit by the console.
and you do not want to normally allow every user to reboot your system
(even if you have no users, a naive bug that allows remote users to launch
commands on your linux as user 'nobody' would allow rebooting.

after this warning, here is how to do it if you stil wish to. the solution
lies with PAM (i assume that your system ias redhat based..). look at the
file /etc/pam.d/halt - it looks like this:

#%PAM-1.0
auth   sufficient   /lib/security/pam_rootok.so
auth   required /lib/security/pam_console.so
auth   required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so
accountrequired /lib/security/pam_permit.so


first, make a backup copy of the original file.
next, comment out the line with 'pam_pwdb' by prepending a '#' sign at the
beginning of the line.
finally, check that this works.
