@stinkeye

it seems that the os.getenv command doesnt work for you
try entering your username directly into the script

local username = os.getenv("USERNAME")
--you can enter your username here in case of errors, 
--enter username in quotes like this username = "yourname"
local username = "mcdowall"

this would be how i do it

Yeah thanks, working now.
One question....What does the time "1:12" at the top right indicate.

[mrpeachy]

it current time

line 65 in iweather.lua

out({a=1,fs=16,x=280,y=25,txt=os.date("%I:%m %p")})

Ok, hasn't changed here through conky restarts.

EDIT: iweather.lua was using %m giving month. Changed to %M.
All good ...have happy new year.

Here's my version of v9000i - the interactive weather ...

°C, km/h, (where available), DD/MM/YY - with a few more tweaks ... temp and the feels like temp always visible in Current

mrpeachy and falldown are an awesome mix!

I tip my hat to them!

Hi!
This is my conky config which is based on this, though it only uses it's lua code to draw those circles.
The clock is almost identical to what it where, but all rings are solid color. CPU meter has 6 half-arcs that each presents one cpu core.

Then there's section which shows what's on tv right now (they are finnish tv channels), this is done by a python script which fetches them from http://ampparit.com/tv-opas. The next section shows latests alerts(not sure what they should be called in english. fires, animal rescues, etc...) from our town (it's not so big, so no alerts now), it got them from http://www.tilannehuone.fi/halytys.php. I don't need this so much but it's there for my dad. That's too done by python script.

That orange matches to this wallpaper even better than to the blue default on xubuntu.

You can remove or add the arcs on cpu meter to match your core count, or you could use just one meter. On my crappy laptop I have only one arc with start angle of -175 and end angle of 175.



btw. This is my first post. Have been browsing this site a long but never posted anything.

@ monttu300

Nice first post. Local General Alerts would probably work.

Tilannehuone = Situation Room - I can't find "Veteli" but no matter I'm sure your father is quite happy with Tilannehuone Veteli

Happy New Year!

good day

ive been tinkering with v9000 weather and with the help of falldown came up with this



you can get all the files here if you want to try it
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/.../v9000i.tar.gz

updated iweather.lua
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/190 … lua.tar.gz

this is how it works

needs some more work to get things spot on

I'm getting "inspired" by your efforts.
Both of you are pushing the envelope...
Great Job!

OK, time to push your buttons ...

Here mine with a complete conky under it (all one conky) and falldown's AWESOME mono icon set that he released today!

Although you'd be better off with mrpeachy's or falldown's setup as they are made for the USA.

This is a new fresh install as of 26 Dec ... tomorrow I'll have "Last Week" data, in about 35 minutes, and in Feb I'll have three months data as well.

Happy New Year Habitual, Petro Dawg, Stinkeye and everyone else!

Happy New Year Sector11,

Falldowns latest icons blend in much better.
Wonder if falldown lived up to his name on New Years eve?
