Beryl. Konsoles. You can figure the rest out.
I keep on wanting to do a dark theme but Konqueror's HTML fields don't adjust properly and some sites that don't declare colors properly come out wrong.  |
I love that movie.  |

Man, that screenshot takes me back. One of my first setups looked almost exactly like that. Fluxbox, the window/slit colors, anime wallpaper, Eterm. I think I might have used that actual wallpaper for a while. Good times.

I laughed my ass off when I read the headline under "OTHER TOP STORIES" when I visited the BBC page today. It's good to see that somebody preserved it in a screenshot.  |

No. That's an animated wallpaper for e17, with a clock integrated in the background. The most interesting part is that the file is only 64KB in size!

if the log is only root readable you could use sudo.... |

Sure - but sudo requires a password (I won't change this for security reasons) - I played around with this, but it never worked, this is where I am struggling...

sudo has the capability to be passwordless on a command by command basis.
for example
%wheel ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/hibernate
gives everyone in the wheel group passwordless access to /usr/sbin/hibernate
(you may already know this). |

That is the detour theme. You can get it over svn, or the version releases made here:
