Post your .conkyrc files w/ screenshots

lol I totally forgot about the 10,000 post thing 5 minutes after I made that last post.

It's my ADD...

Londonali1010,

My Lua script is named correctly. (I copied and pasted from various sources instead of downloading the archive.) The issue I am having is that NONE of the lua output (meaning the rings themselves) display on the screen.

Looks like this:
Attachment 132842

I am using lua to display a template under other conkies on the screen though, so it's not a matter of lua and cairo not working in conky.

Ah. Are you using one .conkyrc for the Lua script and others to display on top of it? Because if you are, it will never display correctly because of how Conky draws its pseudotransparency...

Otherwise, are you letting it load long enough? There is a safety of 5 Conky updates before the rings display to allow for the $cpu being nil (it will crash otherwise).

Does any of that help?

OMIGOD YOU GUYS, I WAS GONE FOR LIKE 5 MINUTES AND I MISSED IT!!!

No fair! I'm at work!

HA! I'm at home (like a good retired grampa should be) and I missed it too!

Wait a sec - at work? What are you doing here if you're at work?

Take this job and ...

Oops! Singing on the job isn't good either.

Have a nice day

What do you think I do for a living? ...construction? .... Lifeguard maybe?

no, I only have 1 lua per conky.

Well it worked before I tried to modify it to support proxess's colorizing. (which would go well on CH! I might add.) so I figured I munged up the code somehow.

I waited around for that 10,000 post and I drive to school and I missed it. anyway I wanted to set up a horizontal conky on the bottom. I have a quick question about setting up the text alignment to the bottom left or the bottom middle. If i do it in the middle i will have to do positive and negative ${voffset}'s and ${offset}'s i think. If i set it to the bottom right i will just have to use positive ${offset}'s. I think i got that right. if its too confusing just fail me.

Any ideas why a curl script that works in the terminal screws up in conky? It's driving me bananas.

Damn. Silly me, I didn't actually try it with conky. It works just fine on command line like you said and NOTHING in conky..

EDIT: I just realized, it says

sh: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string

and the curl script works fine in the BASH command line!

ok, who knows how to get conky to run stuff using bash instead of sh?

EDIT: again: I tried adding

bash -c

in front of the curl statement. Still doesn't work.
