Well, using my massive detective and intuitive powers (and reading the titlebar of the program), I would judge that the program is called XMMS and is a media player. It probably came with your distro. If not, go to it's website and download it from there.

Ask me another

I'm sorry but I find this amusing. The author of that screenshot says he's running "gkrellm" (see the bottom of that page), rshaw writes first about "gtkrelm" and then about "gtkellm". I believe it's really called GKrellM.

What?! This thread contains a question, answer and subsequent discussion about software for Linux and that's why it was in the Linux - Software forum. The game part was only a (unnecessary but harmless) bluff. As op_stager put it:

There's plenty of threads that are good candidates for moving around, this wasn't one of them.

In response to what theme that is, I working on finding it right now cause it looks pretty cool, but going by the naming conventions of the theme screenshots on that page (the main page being fluxbox.sourceforge.net) I'm guessing it's called zodiac, or zodiac_fluxbox.

EDIT: looks like I'm wrong, the screenshot was submitted under the username zodiac, there doesn't seem to be a name of the theme anywhere...
