That's how it works with most running processes.
Just open a new terminal or tab.
ctrl+c will kill the process that's running in the terminal.
"
Make sure when you edit the toggle script to keep in the same form using "&" and maintain spacing.
Right clicking on a file or folder and choosing copy will copy the path to the clipboard for pasting in scripts.
Then at least you know the path is correct.

PS Just looking at your last pic ....did you use "user" as your username?

OH!!! I just figured it out. I was trying out Kazam recording app (to show you how it happends), well during recording now, I tried try press on "Run" that's to the very right.
Before I had been pressing "Run in terminal", so that's why it maybe didn't work.
Works now though as I press on the run button

So after a bit of time with my best friend Google, I have found out that the problem is with the ALX driver for my eth0. Somehow when the driver code was merged into the 3.something kernel, the driver level monitoring code was not added in. So, no mater what, I won't be getting the data from my wired connection until the kernel is updated with the missing driver code...

Oh well...

Can't you drop back to an earlier kernel? I'm not sure how you'd do that in Ubuntu though.

Step 1 - Admitted that we were powerless over conky - and love it!

Desktop 1, 2 & 3 - My general area of work.

#3 is usually empty, but there are a couple of conkys there under development.

Desktop #4 - my wife's area, with her weather open in a window:


That's it normally ... today I opened Desktops 5, 6 & 7 and put the conkys in there that I have an OB menu entry to start.

There are a 'few' more but ... ... ...

Okay now make yourself a unity launcher.

Check the directory ~/.local/share/applications exists

mkdir ~/.local/share/applications

Create a .desktop launcher for the conky-toggle.sh script.

gedit ~/.local/share/applications/Conky-Control.desktop

Copy and paste this into gedit....

#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Terminal=false
Exec=/path/to/toggle-conky.sh
Name=Conky-Control
Icon=/path/to/pic
Comment=Toggle Conky

Edit Exec= to use your path to toggle-conky.sh
Edit Icon= to use your path to a pic
Save and close.

For an icon, just search google images. png's with transparent backgrounds look best.
I've attached the one I use.

Open the dash and search "conky".
Drag and drop Conky-Control from the dash to the launcher.
Use middle click for the second click if running in quick succession.
Unity has a delay of about 10 secs before you can do a repeat launcher click.
