Post your .conkyrc files w/ screenshots

**Jedcurtis** · November 4th, 2012

@Sector11, yes! Need all the help I can get. This week has fried my brain! Do I just call it via the conkyrc? (conkyemail) I have it installed by-the-way. Just need to know how to utilize it...

OK, hold off on your help! I just found the python script and am thinking I can solve on my own. (maybe) If not I'll PM you tomorrow sometime...

I FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!!!!!! Woot woot!!!! I'm getting there slowly but surely. Once I figured out that I already had conkyEmail installed (courtesy of conky-companions I think) the rest was fairly strait-forward!!!

Thanks

Change the other to:

Code:

gap_x 1000     ## Right / Left  <<-- adjust as needed.
gap_y 6  ## Up / Down

You may need a sleep time in your start up, check this out: Start/Stop Conky

For sleep, I have my start delayed by 40sec in my conky-start-delayed.sh

Code:

#!/bin/bash
sleep 40 &&
conky -c /home/brendan/.conkyrc && 
conky -c /home/brendan/.conkyrc_weather_com
#conky -c ~/.conkyrc2 &
#conky -c ~/.conkyrc3

Should that one not work ? Or just not with Mint ?

Both my conkys have 'alignment top_left'. And my weather conky has the gaps as follows...

Code:

# Gap between borders of screen and text
gap_x 310  ## Right / Left 
gap_y 25   ## Up / Down

Which when it starts it starts in the correct position. Now it won't even start from terminal though for some reason, been working up till now. Wonder what I did ?! Inadvertently ?!

Initial start from terminal...

After I remove this line and save...
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

After I put that line back in and save...

Doesn't it seem odd that saving that line out then back in will move it from one monitor to the other ? I thought maybe it was the way I had my monitors set up, but upon looking I have the left set as absolute as it should be.
I need to look at my weather conky now to see why it wont start at all :-/

Ok, it seems I now have a segmentation fault in my weather conky

Code:

brendan@brendan-MS-7636:~$ conky -c ~/.conkyrc_weather_com
Conky: desktop window (c00021) is subwindow of root window (263)
Conky: window type - normal
Conky: drawing to created window (0x2a00001)
Conky: drawing to double buffer
Segmentation fault

I also changed my start-delay to do what your link shows

Code:

#!/bin/sh
   # click to start, click to stop
    
   if pidof conky | grep [0-9] > /dev/null
   then
   exec killall conky
   else
    
   sleep 30  # sleep not required for xfce on startup - 30 or more for others
   conky -c ~/.conkyrc &
   sleep 30
   conky -c ~/conkyrc_weather_com &
   
    
   exit
   fi

No dice, still not starting without going to terminal.

Geeze...good thing for the edit button lol. After about 10 minutes I tried starting the weather conky through terminal again and it started. So why did it show segmentation fault the first time ?

/Home disk usage is working. Found the conky variables "fs_used" & fs_free http://conky.sourceforge.net/variables.html then edited .conkyrc by using the correct user name. {fs_used /home/USER}/${fs_size /home/USER}

encryption was not a problem nor was separate partition for Home. Thanks everybody. The Ubuntu community is the greatest.

i think you need an "&&" after the sleep command
dont know if that has anything to do with your problems

My old start config had those, I just tried that with this new one and that didn't help either.
What exactly is a segmentation fault anyhow ? Had one then my conky started ok shortly after. Now that I restarted the fault is back. I'll try it again in 10 minutes and see if it goes away again.

And just so they are in the same post, this is my start script I'm now trying

Code:

#!/bin/sh
   # click to start, click to stop
    
   if pidof conky | grep [0-9] > /dev/null
   then
   exec killall conky
   else
    
   sleep 30  && # sleep not required for xfce on startup - 30 or more for others
   conky -c ~/.conkyrc &
   sleep 30  &&
   conky -c ~/conkyrc_weather_com &
   
    
   exit
   fi

These both worked without issue every day while using Ubuntu 12.04
Now on Linux Mint 13 (Cinnamon) there are problems.

**mrpeachy** · November 4th, 2012

you could try replacing the settings you have now with this set of minimal settings on each conky
adjust size and gaps and see if the conkies behave

Code:

##minimal conky settings
background no
use_xft yes
total_run_times 0
own_window yes
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type normal
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager
double_buffer yes
no_buffers yes
uppercase no
cpu_avg_samples 2
update_interval 1

alignment top_right
minimum_size 600 400
maximum_width 600
gap_x 10
gap_y 0
