    Good to see some life back in this part of the world! Some nice stuff posted up there...

    Just to help keep it happening - here a link to my current screenshot of my most-used distro..

    [other] Re: HOWTO: VinDSL Conky Script

    I'm on 1.11.3 conky for the most part (although MX19 and Xubuntu 20.04 both have 1.10.8 for the moment). This is mainly because Paramvir packaged up conky-cairo in the AUR (most of the rest of...

    Well - known good versions are 1.10.8 (which was in 18.04, and in MX-19 for that matter) and 1.11.3 is the latest that still works right (it is up to 1.11.5 at least), but I have no idea at this...

    [other] Re: HOWTO: VinDSL Conky Script

    Not entirely sure which problem remains... from what I can see on the screenshot, you have some positioning 'slippage' and the CPU/GPU temps are not picked up. Is this all that remains a problem?...
  7. [xubuntu] Re: what program does Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R run in Gnome be default?

    Did you know that some of the questions here are posted by people who know even less than I do? Not the case here...

    Sorry... couldn't help you

  8. [xubuntu] Re: what program does Ctrl+Alt+Shift+R run in Gnome be default?

    You might want to look at SimpleScreenRecorder - it can be set up to respond to a 'hot key', using pre-configured options. I suspect there are more choices, but that's the only one I've used.

    [SOLVED] Re: resizing images maybe with convert

    Not sure what you're looking for, but the convert that I use (Imagemagick) doesn't require BOTH sides of the sizing command. In fact it is perfectly happy with a percentage. As an example:

    After a symlink (soft link) is created, only a redirect exists by that name in the original location. All file interactions actually occur in the new destination location.

    Looking good - again! What I worry about (a bit) is what Wayland will do to conky - or whether it will be addressed by the conky devs. However, in the meantime we just keep tweaking what works now!

    No expertise here - but is there any chance that wayland crept into use on your system? You could check the 'cog' at your next login to be sure - or
