Cathal mac Ruaidhri
Cathal mac Ruaidhri (died 1043) was King of Maigh Seóla/Iar Connacht.
Biography
Cathal was the great-grandson of Flaithbheartach mac Eimhin, the eponym of the Ua Flaithbertaig chiefs and fourth great-grandson of Murchadh mac Maenach, the namesake of the Muintir Murchada. The year after he became king, the annals record that "Cathal, son of Ruaidhri, lord of West Connaught, went on his pilgrimage to Ard-Macha (Armagh)."[1] He appears to have died there in 1043. He was succeeded by his son, Amhalgaidh.

gollark: Not sure about software but I bet someone has written something for it.
gollark: You could get a raspberry pi and one of their cameras? It wouldn't be very good but ought to *work*.
gollark: Also, on the topic of terrible device security, an old router I had had a similar security problem. There was a telnet management interface thing which I noticed had a `ps` command, and it seemed that some lazy/stupid programmer had just made it pass the arguments straight to `system` or something, because you could do `ps ; sh` and... get a root shell...
