Ubuntu :: Conky Location Is Wrong?
Jun 4, 2011I just installed conky. Can someone give me a push? What it does is place itself behind the tool bar, keeping the toolbar open, covering itself.

Ubuntu :: Conky Forecast Giving Wrong Temperature?
Dec 9, 2010ConkyForecast is giving me the way wrong temperature (conky says it is 129 but weather.com says it is 54) it also added an A symbol before the degree symbol.
ConkyForecast.template
Code:
${image [--datatype=WI --CC] -p 0,0 -s 64x64}
${image [--datatype=WI --startday=1] -p 120,0 -s 64x64}
${image [--datatype=WI --startday=2] -p 240,0 -s 64x64}
${voffset 15}
Now: [--datatype=LT]${goto 135}[--datatype=DW --startday=1]: [--datatype=LT --startday=1]${goto 255}[--datatype=DW --startday=2]: [--datatype=LT --startday=2]

Ubuntu :: Conky At Startup - Has Wrong Window Setting
May 17, 2011I have conky running a simple script on my Ubuntu 11.04 install. Running conky from using ALT-F2 is fine, but I have have conky added to the startup list, and when it runs from this, the conky window is different (ie not integrated with desktop layer). It has some shadowing around the edge and it seems to be on a layer other than the desktop. In addition to this, it stops running after a short while. I then run conky from ALT-F2 again and it's appears as I want, and stays there all day. I have included what I think is the relevant code below from my conkyrc. Has anyone had similar issues with a suitable way to resolve the problem?
Code:
own_window yes
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type override
#own_window_type desktop
#own_window_type normal
#
own_window_type conky
own_window_class Conky
Ubuntu :: Conky Starts Wrong With Lucid (Fresh Install)
Jun 6, 2010I've been using conky for some time now, and I haven't changed conkyrc for a while. However, when I installed lucid (fresh install) conky starts wrong with ubuntu, like in a glass box that overlaps any window. The weird thing is that if I kill conky and start it over again manually (without the script in preferences->startup applications) it is OK. Screenshots: [URL].

Aug 4, 2009I am very new to linux and just need a bit of help figuring this one out. I installed ImageMagick the first time using yum, then I used an alternative method. It's installed properly the second time and almost does what I want except that when I type 'convert' in the prompt it gives me '-bash: /usr/bin/convert: No such file or directory'
The actual location of convert is /usr/local/bin/convert How do I change it so the convert command is pointing to the right executable?

Debian :: Conky - Full Screen Config / 2 Conky Configs?
Jun 13, 2011Said 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?

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: OpenMotif : Create Network Location Link As Local Filesystem Location?
Apr 26, 2011I'm working with a program that uses Open Motif to create all of the widgets, including the Open File dialog box (obviously). However, Open Motif being kinda old-timey, 80's vintage, and for the most part now an abandoned project, it is quite clunky. So, actually what I need to do is to open some files located on my work server. I have already successfully connected to the relevant server directories with Samba, and with programs built with GTK+ (such as GIMP) I can open files across the network because I have created a bookmark in Nautilus, and those bookmarks appear in the Open File dialog box created by GTK+. Now, Open Motif is different: it doesn't see network locations, orNautilus shortcuts. When I type "smb://serveripyadayada" in the search folder, it really doesn't like it and complains. So, what do I do? Can I get somehow Open Motif to open a network location? Or can I do a run-around and place a shortcut in the file system that points to the network location?

Ubuntu :: Cannot Get Started With Conky
Nov 24, 2010I 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.

Here's the link to the site. I'm not sure how do i set this up as my conky config.

Ubuntu :: Conky Crashes With Desktop?
Jan 8, 2010I 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.
Ubuntu :: Conky And Unprintable Characters?
Feb 4, 2010I'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?

Code:

Lines added before and after the conky line run perfectly. Unclutter runs, but no conky.
Ubuntu :: Trying To Get Weather Working For Conky
Jun 20, 2010I'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?
Ubuntu :: Conky On Top Of Windows At Boot?
Jul 26, 2010Every 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
[code]....
If nothing else, is there some command I that restarts conky other than saving the conkyrc file?
