rjmdomingo2003, that's a very cool font!

Thanks to dafont.com for publishing them. If you're referring to conky, it's Market Deco. For the clickable (Discovery) icons, I wouldn't know

[ELDadou38]

Edit: Got my calendar working now.

Thanks anyway and I'll post some screenshots soon.

Hi IIIV,

Could you please tell us how do you manage to make it works ?

It will be nice

[WorldTripping]

thanks i really like what it does to be honest, i was having a lot of difficulty with conky opening rhythmbox everytime i logged in, so i wrote an if_running statement to start data collection only if it is already running! i solved a vast problem last night just by prodding around with the configuration file

I found this somewhere, that stops RhythmBox running when conky opens.

NOW PLAYING ${hr 2}$color
Title: ${exec rhythmbox-client --no-start --print-playing-format %at}
Artist: ${exec rhythmbox-client --no-start --print-playing-format %aa}
Track: ${exec rhythmbox-client --no-start --print-playing-format "#%tn - %tt"}

However I am still a complete *nix beginner, and I like the concept of using the 'If' statement. Opens up lots of potential.

I just swapped vid cards, and now conky won't do double-buffer, so it flashes every 2 seconds. Very distracting.

I wonder if I should try a generic video driver.

The only other thing that bothers me is this:

I had to make a session script so that conky would not show up with shadows around it upon login, due to compiz-fusion drawing shadows around its "window".

Does anyone know a way to rectify this, so I don't have to run a secondary script on login?

From what I've seen about the only way that people have come up with is the script, which is essentially a sleep script for 5-10 seconds until all the window decorations are done drawing.
