Re: My Conky Config

We should have a seperate thread titled "Conky Help" and move the help requests there.

About your font issue, if you are the only user on the system that needs the font the easiest way to install would be to place any fonts you want to use in your /home/username/.fonts directory.  If you can not see your .fonts directory in your file manager be sure to use Ctrl+H or under the View menu there is an option to view hidden files.  Files and directories begining with a dot ( .fonts) are hidden from normal view.

I view KDE like I view snow. It looks fun and marvelous, it's fun to play in, but after a while I just want someone to take it all away.

Re: My Conky Config

1. Create a new folder inside your home folder and name it " .fonts".
2. Move the font there.
3. Open a terminal and run "sudo fc-cache -f -v".

Note: ** Please read before posting **

BTW if you wish to contact me, send me an e-mail instead of a PM.

You have to use the correct device.  For instance my ethernet connection is eth0, if I used eth1, ra0, or anything else other than eth0 I would get no connection data displayed in conky.

Anonymous and crunchy are both trying to explain this to you, you need to find what device you are using for the connection.

I got that,,Im just not sure on how to do that,,Thank you for your reply.

I also think posting a conky help section would be nice,,I think its a great idea.

Re: My Conky Config

I'm not quite so minimalist - but I had fun with using 'if' statements so that when I mount or plug in a USB it comes up in the list in conky, and with networking also, it will hide graphs and the weather section when the network is down.

I like coffee/winter colours - go take a look http://linuxoutlaws.com/forums/viewtopi … p;start=10

I love it tongue Thanks to everyone here for some nice ideas ( can't say I wrote it myself, though I did write it about 10 times or more before I was finished smile))

I put a few extra bits in to help newcomers (a small 'pastebin' section, a 'color reference' - that helps edit colors and enter them by having them visible as numbers 1-9 across the top etc.

Hope it makes someone's life a little easier.

I won't attach the three different conkyrc's now — if you insist, I can do that later (might have to clean them up a bit).

Re: My Conky Config

I've been playing around with Conky as well. The idea is that it should function as a permanently visible sidebar of 100 px wide, by setting the desktop margin to 100 px. Luckily the calendar just fits in, with no pixel to spare tongue

Re: My Conky Config

ConkyContacts:

I made this for myself today, I have trouble remembering everyone's contact info.  I placed "decorate" in conky so I could move the window around, it looks cool if you right click on the border and undecorate.  This provides an aesthetically pleasing border.  However you can remove the Openbox window border by changing decorate to undecorate.  It's very simple but I have saved you the time of most of the lining-up issues.
