Im pretty sure this falls under homework which would make it against the rules to ask for help here but you can just google how to make a fake error prompt and you will find tons of links that will teach you. There are even youtube videos on the subject.

And if you use a program like espeak you'll be able to make your computer actually say the immortal words. Just like the real Hal.
Dunno how to make it sing "Daisy" though. :p

gnome
gdialog --msgbox "I'm sorry dave, I can't let you do that" --title "Error"
kde
kdialog --msgbox "I'm sorry dave, I can't let you do that" --title "Error"

k Wow, I was told Linux Ubuntu had a strong community but damn. I didn't think I would get a resopose that fast.
I should have specified GNOME, but the
gdialog --msgbox "I'm sorry dave, I can't let you do that" --title "Error"
code worked like a charm.
