Re: conky and start at boot

You can make a script to have it start after natilus.
Create a text file name it " .conky " click on it to open it in gedit, put this in side->

Code:
#!/bin/sh
sleep 5
 conky
 fi
Now cose it and right click on it and go to the permissions and check the box next to execute to make it excutable. Now add it to your startup> /home/user/.conky

that's it just adjust the time as needed to get it how you want.

Re: conky and start at boot

Are you using the repository Conky or a checkinstall-built one?
