You need "open logos" font: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/sh...?content=54390

Then in your conky put:
${font openlogos:size=32}U${font}

[Fenris_rising]

pretty cool stuff on here. linux is amazing!!! i can do very little things with it but for the interesting stuff i have to resort to theivery!!! in mitigation i do try and read your coding to get some sort of grasp of it. ive found the variables page but is there a definitive guide to conky? heres my small offering just added the amarok code from one of you chaps.

[Bruce M.]

Then in your conky put:
${font openlogos:size=32}U${font}

I think that would be;

${font openlogos:size=32}v${font}

not "U". U is an ox head.

Have a nice day

I think you're right, sorry, I don't use it anymore so I forgot the letter.

Shhhh, don't tell anyone but neither do I, I have the line commented out above the TEXT line.

Have a nice evening.

Do one of you guys know a font that has symbols for cpu, ram, upload, download, music, power, wireless network, ... so I can use it to small down my conky?
Thanx

i have my conky to startup with my system when i log on, but if i start amarok after that conky wont recognize it unless i quit conky and restart it.

heres my amarok code. any suggestions?

ive used your amarok code. changed the colours to suit my setup but i dont have the problem you do. i cant say i understand the dark arts of programming but if it works for me might it be something to do with amaroks setup rather than your code? my music files are run with the SQlite in amarok if that has any relevence.
