[Super]karamba

This would be cool in knoppix :

SuperKaramba is, in simple terms, a tool that allows you to easily create interactive eye-candy on your KDE desktop. Currently, only linux is officially supported.
How does it work?

Theme writers create themes, or text files that define their widget. Then, they can optionally add python scripting to make their widget interactive. The possibilities are endless!


Here are just some examples of the things that can be done:

Display system information such as CPU Usage, MP3 playing, etc.

Create cool custom toolbars that work any way imaginable

Create little games or virtual pets that live on your desktop

Display information from the internet, such as weather and headlines


The possibilities really are endless!

I also think that this would be a nice addition to Knoppix, but space concerns will probably rule it out. Eadz, did Karamba or SuperKaramba make it onto the DVD?

Yeah Karamba is on the DVD, but there are no themes included.

There are some really nice themes on kde-look.org but some of the licences are not suitable for distribution "free as long as you don't sell it"
