reboot is a windows thing! Not needed here.

Unless you have a NVIDIA driver and then you have to "restart" every other week.

• Driver updates/install/removal
• Kernel updates and other kernel-related changes

I'm trying to install the conky-companions from the ppa but it's failing at apt-get update. Any ideas?

Just checked it and everything looks in order...

Just to be sure, you did run

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:conky-companions/ppa 
sudo apt-get update

and confirmed you received the key, correct?

Just run this now

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:conky-companions/ppa 
sudo apt-get update

and the second of those updates the sources...

You can also edit the source list from synaptic to fix the errors and reload from there too
