Search for Life: The Drake Equation

Spotted an old KDE desktop on a workstation on the "Search for Life: The Drake Equation" (presented by scientific dullard Dallas Cambell) on a multi-monitor workstation searching for extra-terrestrial radio waves (SETI). I'd guess it's most likely Red Hat. Notice the boot-up screen in the last screenshot, KDE panel in the 4th screenshot and the KDE logout/shutdown screen in the 6th screenshot. At the moment the documentary is available to watch on BBC iPlayer here, skip to about 50 mins in to see this.
