    Setting Up Second Instance of Conky

    So on my left hand side I have my initial instance of conky and I want to put a second one on the right hand side. I have had a google and what I have found haven't been very clear on how to do this, can someone please tell me how to do this?

    Thanks in advance.

    You would create 2 separate configuration files (for example ~/.conkyrc and ~/.conkyrc2). Then in your startup, execute conky twice and specify the configuration file to use.

    Have a look at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885992 for examples.
