I have had a perfectly working conky setup for a few months now, and felt like updating it. The new setup is slightly longer that the old one. The onlyblem is that it stops displaying any more text after a certain line on my screen. There are 3 more lines below "IO Usage" that should be displaying, but they aren't. They aren't hidden off the screen, they just aren't being displyaed.I also discovered that the top line always seems to be fixed at a certain point on the screen. It won't move up or down. Even if there are less lines of stuff to be displayed, the top line stays there, and there is a gap between conky and the bottom of the screen.The first problem is the bigger one, but I have a feeling that they are both somehow related.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using pogodynka.sh to try and get conky to show the temperature and incorporate and icon from weather.ttf to show a graphical depiction... i.e. a sun for sunny, a cloud with a lightening bolt for thunder...
I have managed to get it working in the past (about a year ago) Now I am unable to get the icon to show, the font is installed and being used by other parts of the same instance of conky. However the pogodynka DOES state the temperature. I just have no graphical representation of that, thus it creates a big blank spot in the middle of my conky....
I'm trying to set up Conky to show a number of RSS feeds, and while I can get it to show the raw titles of items how would I trim these titles down to a given number of characters (say, 40) and add an ellipsis to the end if text has been cut off? The length of titles by default can vary wildly, so if only for the sake of organisation it'd be nice to have a maximum title length imposed.
I found this thread that does something kind of similar for Transmission torrents, but I have no idea how I'd adapt it for RSS feeds. As it stands, the code (well, a sample at least) is simply:
Code:
SLASHDOT$hr
${rss http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot/to 5 item_title 0}
${rss http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot/to 5 item_title 1}
${rss http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot/to 5 item_title 2}
${rss http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot/to 5 item_title 3}
${rss http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot/to 5 item_title 4}
I'm struggling to get my Conky feed to show the CPU temperature. I'm working with a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10. Currently my Conky display shows a CPU temperature of 0 degrees Celsius, and I know this isn't true because I built the computer myself and I'm definitely not that good! Also, the GNOME hardware applet contradicts this and gives a more realistic CPU temperature of 33 degrees Celsius. What I can do to rectify this and get this displayed in my Conky?
The science bit:
I have done a sudo-sensors detect, and for CPU sensors it tells me:
Code:
Some south bridges, CPUs or memory controllers contain embedded sensors.
Do you want to scan for them? This is totally safe. (YES/no): y
Silicon Integrated Systems SIS5595... No
VIA VT82C686 Integrated Sensors... No
VIA VT8231 Integrated Sensors... No
AMD K8 thermal sensors... No
AMD Family 10h thermal sensors... Success!
(driver `k10temp')
AMD Family 11h thermal sensors... No
Intel Core family thermal sensor... No
Intel Atom thermal sensor... No
Intel AMB FB-DIMM thermal sensor... No
VIA C7 thermal sensor... No
VIA Nano thermal sensor... No
The end summary is as follows:
Code:
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `k10temp' (autoloaded):
* Chip `AMD Family 10h thermal sensors' (confidence: 9)
and here is the relevant snippet of my conkymain file:

I've installed the conky on my slack 13.1.
So, I get a script on the internet, and get this line error:

And I get the follwing error:

So, I see my output os acpitool and the Thermal Info is not available.
Do you know what can I do to get the Temperature of my CPU?
Is there a way to get conky to show only eth0 or wlan0? My configuration only shows the wireless bit when wifi is switched on but shows eth0 all the time.
Temperature: I have nvidia card with drivers from rpm fusion, can conky give me the temperature of the card and the cpu?
I have some problem with dzen2 & conky to show icons and/or colors.In my i3-wm config file i have:exec conky -b -c ~/.conkyrc | i3-wsbar --command "dzen2 -dock -x %x -l"and my conky is correctly displayed on i3-wsbar.But if in my conky I put something like:

I have conky installed and set up as a startup application, however everytime I log out and back in conky creates itself as a new window:
How can I get conky to start normally without having to do a manual restart everytime I login?
Said that all the config i find put all the info in one place of the screen, in this example on the right side:
url
or like conky colors where you can put in either side, or other complex examples that use folders with images..that at least i need one day to study all the variables it has...
What i want is something simple, in my black background i dont want images and effects, only white simple text.
My problem is: i want for instance my specs above, my log info in the middle, my music info bellow (above my clock) and in conky config i'm hitting my head in the wall....
For instance if i use my facebook script to appear in the midle how the hell can i put my music info bellow without ruined the facebook in the midle...do i need 2 conky configs?
when I type "conky" in terminal it returns with Conky: invalid configuration file '/home/user/.conkyrc' Conky: missing text block in configuration; exiting ***** Imlib2 Developer Warning ***** : This program is calling the Imlib call: imlib_context_free(); With the parameter: context being NULL. Please fix your program. I've tried completely uninstalling, rebooting, then reinstalling, still same error?

Anyway since I upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 when I right-click on something and there is another menu in that menu, it doesn't show up for the first time!
for example if I want to create a an "Empty File", I'll right-click on desktop and when I want to go to "Create Document" menu, it doesn't show up! so I must click somewhere else and try again so for the second time it works!!
I configured it to use IMAP to access our exchange 2010 server front end on a LAN connection. Our webmail connection is segregated behind Forefront, so it was not connecting/authing that way. Even though smartphones have no problem. (sidenote, is there an activesync linux mail client ?)
I have many root folders and several folders underneath my inbox. total mailsize in inbox is 3.5 GB without subfolders. The sent is likewise as large. And is likewise empty.
Things I checked already:

Folder subscription is on and local copy is on

Thunderbird worky fine.

Tried adding lightening, but it won't add into thunderbird.
Will try finding a diff add on, or if anyone knows how to get lightening into thunderbird 3.1.8 on ubuntu 10 that would be great as well.

how do i make this conky not to be on top of others on startup? i have to killall conky then activate conky to use it normally.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just did a fresh install of Ubuntu 10.10 and i thought I'll just compile the latest version of conky.
So i did:
Code:

I recently installed Ubuntu and I came across Conky.I was fascinated with this software and installed it using terminal codes. At first it rand with the default config file loaded. then i PC shutdown due to a power failure. now conky does not start and after searching over the net i found out that my conky config file is missing. I pasted the conky config fiel yet to no avail.
It gives me this error while running it in Terminal
Code:
Conky: /home/shazzy/.conkyrc: 30: no such configuration: 'on_bottom'
Conky: /home/shazzy/.conkyrc: 63: no such configuration: 'border_margin'
Conky: use_spacer should have an argument of left, right, or none. 'no' seems to be some form of 'false', so defaulting to none.

I have conky on my desktop, and it works most of the time. The only times I've noticed problems are when I do large file transfers from my computer to an external HD.
What happens during large file transfers is that Conky crashes, and then I realize that my desktop is also "dead" (as in, I can't highlight anything. The icon for my external HD is gone, even though it is still mounted and accessible. Right-clicking doesn't do anything either.). I tried Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, but that didn't work either. I can log out and back in to get everything working again, but that's a bit of a pain.
I'm using the GNOME desktop on Ubuntu 9.10.
I've downloaded a .htm file from the WWW which has the following few lines:
Quote:
<h1>
Latest Times as at: 4-Feb-2010 15:30 ${color3}${execi 1800 grep "Latest" FinishTimes.htm | sed -e 's/ in Tideda Files//'}
</h1>
and in my Conky script I do this:
Code:
${color3}${execi 1800 grep "Latest" FinishTimes.htm}
but when it prints on the screen there is an empty box at the end of the line. I assume this a CR or LF that's attached to the end of the line, but how can I get rid of it?
Is there a way to stop conky from closing when I click on it? I have a few set up as a system monitor bar on the desktop, and I'd like to anchor them there from accidental clicking so I don't have to restart my script.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAs the title implies, I have fluxbox and conky running in Karmic. The problem is getting conky to start at startup. Below is my ~/.fluxbox/startup file. I have searched and tried everything I have found to get it to work. Conky works beautifully when I run it manually. Anyway, here is my startup file:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
xmodmap "/home/doug/.Xmodmap"
unclutter -idle 2 &
conky &
exec fluxbox -log "/home/doug/.fluxbox/log"
Lines added before and after the conky line run perfectly. Unclutter runs, but no conky.
I'm trying to get weather installed/working for conky. In my .conkyrc file I have this code of line
Code:
${color white}${execi 1800 /home/rjr/weather/weather.sh 92392}
I have the 2 files weather.sh and weather.xslt in its own folder named weather and in weather.sh file I have this line of code..
Code:
# where this script and the XSLT lives
RUNDIR=/home/rjr/weather/
I gave permission to weather.sh file, on my desktop running conky in the weather section it says Invalid Partner Code. I tried even putting USCA1197 in the .conkyrc file instead of my zip code and still same problem. Do I have to give weather folder permission as well?
Every time I boot, conky (the system manager tool) is on top of all other windows. Every time I restart conky (save the .conkyrc file) it ends up under all the windows. Here is my conkyrc up to the TEXT part:
Code:

# - Conky settings - #
######################
update_interval 1
total_run_times 0

If nothing else, is there some command I that restarts conky other than saving the conkyrc file?
