I haven't used DSL but you may be referring to
conky or it could be one of the desklets software like adesklets, gdesklets or even superkaramba.

How can I do this? Is this a program? Is this feature unique to DSL 3.1? or is it a common feature available to all distributions w/ X that I simply haven't seen before (I'm pretty new so that isn't saying much =)

As far as conky and adesklets concerned, you can simply apt-get it in Ubuntu. With slackware, you would have to either get a precompiled one from LinuxPackages or compile one yourself.
Tux,
