Linux Easter Egg - Apt-Get and Super Cow Powers
1. Type apt-get help. If the egg is present one, there will be a line "This APT has Super Cow Powers."
2. Type apt-get moo and you will see a picture of a cow drawn in ascii and message "have you mooed today?" You do not need root permissions to do this- just log in as a normal user.

Actually, this is more related to aptitude. Try these commands, one line at a time:
aptitude moo
aptitude -v moo
aptitude -vv moo
aptitude -vvv moo
aptitude -vvvv moo
aptitude -vvvvv moo
aptitude -vvvvvv moo

It worked :
after the first command I got a whole list of commands, and the last thing i got was : This APT has Super Cow Powers.
Then I typed the other command :
This APT has Super Cow Powers.
knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ apt-get moo
