this was in old times when i placed it on a button on gkrellm...
I forgot to note it might (or not) be setuid to root as it is in ~bin and quite non standard of a name it might (or again not) pose a security risk worthy (or not again!) the gain.
That might be necessary (or not) for the halt and suspend (sws) commands to work.
(or not)
Some new Fluxbox, not really done. But happy so far.
Just funny. I don't know where did you get the picture on background - but is just reminded me Alien Night one of default background for KDE 3.5 . But Alien Night is greenish.
Not much change in the design, but the only reason I'm posting this is because I've now beaten my uptime record. It's not that good, I know, but it is for me. Now, let no-one say that hibernate doesn't work in Slackware!

Thank you, I feel that wallpaper fits good with the latest Fluxbox theme I created. This setup will run on my gaming machine which have been using Cinnamon for a very long time, but, time to go back to Fluxbox.

Some time ago I was trying to find a way of making kernel boot messages more "interesting" and accidently I discovered lolcat.
Unfortunately the only colors that can be used for kernel boot messages are
red (1 or 9), green (2 or 10), yellow (3 or 11), blue (4 or 12) magenta (5 or 13), cyan (6 or 14), white (7 or 15), black (0) dark or bright for foreground and background (for background change need to modify vt.color entry
that can be added to lilo.conf in the line
append="vt.color=x"
