Ubuntu :: Conky Date Display: Automatically Change Days Of Week
Jan 2, 2011
I'd like to tweak my Conky so it automatically displays the days of the week correctly. So for example, if TODAY were Tuesday, it would look like this:
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
[etc.]
And then tomorrow, *automatically*, it would look like this:
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
[etc.]
I know I can get it to display *today's* date like this:
${time %A}
But how do I get it to display tomorrow's date?

I want conky to display holidays on their respective days. I would be using a Catholic calendar. Do I make an .xml file of the dates and feasts? How can that be accomplished?

I searched the forums for a long time and could not found any relevant informationI am new to ubuntu (10.10 64bit) and I just want to know if it is possible, like it is in win7 (sorry!), if I can plug in my hdmi cord and have the laptop speakers and display disable, and have the external display and its spears enabled.

What offline method is there of finding out days since a certain date. Example: How would someone find the number of days from 1-Jan-2003 to 7-Dec-2010? Could someone write a script that takes in the 2 dates and output the number of days?

I am trying to update using Update Manager and I get this message: Failed to fetch "Failed to fetch [URL]..404 Not Found" My system is 64 days out of date now.
I have looked elsewhere for an answer and some others have had similar problems, but I have not found a reason for it happening, nor an answer. I wonder if anyone can help me please. I have been using Ubuntu for several months, can use the Terminal if I have the right commands to issue, but beyond that have limited knowledge of the system.

So I'm running Fluxbox as my window manager in Xubuntu. I use ivman to automatically mount any usb devices.Now I was wondering if it's possible to have conky display all mounted drives and some information about them.I saw you can do {$ifmounted /media/blah} but this would assume I have a set number of devices preconfigured in fstab. It doesn't account for some random guy's flash drive, or a buddy's smartphone.
I know mount | grep sd outputs a list of mounted drives. So then could I somehow format that output and pass it to conky? Or do you guys have any more clever ideas on how I could accomplish this?

I think someone has been in my apartment when I'm at work and attempted to login to my computer.
Rather than searching through all the logs, is there any way for Conky to display the last 2 or 3 login attempts?

Recently I succesfully installed conky. I managed to get a lot of things work with more or less effort but I can't make conky to display any image.Images path and permissions had been checked. Imlib2 support too but conky won't display a thing.

I am putting together a Conky config file by a sort of 'smash and grab' approach borrowing things from various configs I've seen around the web that do stuff I like. I have reached a stumbling block as I want to display my external IP, I have used
Code:
${addrs eth0}
to display the IP on my LAN and guessed I would just need to substitute 'eth0' with something else to get the external IP?? I have tried the mac address of my primary router to no avail, this just displays '0.0.0.0' My current config looks like:-
Code:
# set to yes if you want Conky to be forked in the background
background yes
#font
use_xft yes
[code]....

I run my conky as one bar at the top of the screen (Ratpoison). It is frustrating when % values jump between 0->10% for example and then the entire bar shifts. How can I make it display 000% 010% 100%?

I have configured opendns on my adsl router. So 192.168.1.1 was the first nameserver in Network Managerbut I often faced name resolution issues, so I configured 4.2.2.1 as the first nameserver, 4.2.2.2 as the second & 192.168.1.1 as the third.Problem is with the above configuration everything works well for a few days then again name resolution stalls. And again I change the sequence of the nameservers or insert a new one & again it works for a few days. I am tired of doing that again & again.

I have an K10 AMD CPU and unfortunately it has a borked temp sensor. I have figured out that if I subtract 8 from value stored in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/temperature that the result is very close to being spot on. The problem is I have no idea to do this and conky has no built in way to do this.
The data stored in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/temperature looks like this:
Code:
temperature: 52 C
Is there some sort of script that can do this?

I often record music from the webradio with Streamtuner.How can I rename the mp3 files recorded in a way that numbers are added to the beginning of the filename representing the order in which the titles were played on the webradio station?I am looking for an automated solution like a renaming tool since there are usually hundreds of files in a directory. I used autorename / ARen for windows back in the day when I was still on XP. What I could do with the tool was:a) Sort the files by date of creationb) add an increasing number at the beginning of the filename based on the position in the sorted list.

I have an old computer and BIOS counts the time slower than real. So, how can I set my OS to update the time automatically using the internet? If it updated the time only during booting, it would be enough.

In Ubuntu is there a way to display all installed software by date? For example it would be handy to show the most recent installed software like in Revo Uninstaller in Windows.

I have a switch tray on my computer and I installed opensuse in one of the hard drives that I have but as I switch between the windows hard drive and opensuse the time changes all the time. For example it's 10pm right now and if I switch the hard drive to opensuse the time automatically gets adjusted 4 hours back and then I fix it and when I switch back to my windows hard drive the time goes forward 4 hours. I check both region settings and they are both set to NY Eastern time. Why is it doing this?

I'm using ubuntu Maverick on a Dell 1545 and I'm pretty much a newbie to ubuntu. Most of the things have been fine so far, I just plugged it into a proxyless internet connection and adjusted my location for time zone (I've been using a porxy server previously for internet which didn't allow changes in location and time zone work) and since then that calendar has moved out of the scope on the top right corner of my screen and I'm unable to move it.

I have just updated to karmic. For some odd reason, the time/date indicator on the top panel now spreads the data over two lines, rather than placing them side by side. There doesn't seem to be any option in the preferences program to control this.
This means that the panel cannot be reduced below a two line minimum. Not only have I lost desktop space, but the panel icons have expanded to suit the new thicker panel.
