[Sector11]

@Sector11Thank-you very much, it's running for few hours to see for the leak; THANKS to Mr Peachy too for cleaning the code !!
Have nice day

Yea, it's a nice fix. I had to apply the fix to a few files:

1. /media/5/Conky/LUA/chrono.lua
2. /media/5/Conky/LUA/Chronograph.lua
3. /media/5/Conky/LUA/Chronograph_2.lua
4. /media/5/Conky/LUA/Chronograph-2.lua
5. /media/5/Conky/LUA/Chronograph_fr.lua
6. /media/5/Conky/LUA/Chronograph_full.lua
7. /media/5/Conky/LUA/chrono_mix.lua

^ glad that fix worked
picked it up from arclance

Haven't seen him in a while ... Thank you arclance!

[djyoung4]

OH! I gotta try that with medit as well.
Thanks dk75 ....

Did you get it working with medit. I could not

[Sector11]

Did you get it working with medit. I could not

Yup, followed the same guide at Conky PitStop for medit and Conky, works great, I renamed the original and popped it in:

/usr/share/medit-1/language-specs/conkyrc.lang
/usr/share/medit-1/language-specs/lua.lang
/usr/share/medit-1/language-specs/lua.lang_orig

Left: conkyrc.lang - Right: lua.lang

Thanks DK75!!!

Opinion: curl
Opinion: The only iPhone

So it stands to reason: MY iPad! Arrrrrgh eyePad

That's what I thought would be the best bet, but wanted reassurance I guess. I still feel like I'm playing with 3 thumbs working with this stuff lol. What would the differences be between the xml and json feeds from that site ?

lol that i phone I remember using those dial phones, showed one to my step daughter and she couldn't figure out how to use it rofl
I actually wish I bought the iPhone instead of the Droid Razr, I could use the same astronomy software that way without extra cost. It already cost me $35 for my iPad and I can use it on up to 5 devices of the same platform. The Razr is a great phone but battery life SUCKS.

edit....By the way, I was perusing your Conky PitStop looking for different steps to do my astronomy feed and see that the link for the Conky Wiki goes to a video site.

Looks nice Is your background animated with the Earth spinning ? That would be pretty sweet. Have you posted your conky for your radar yet ?
I was working on a radar last year but put it aside cause I was having issues with it and it was low on the priority scale.

@ Sector11 & ragamatrix

Cheers guys for the help, I will see what I can put to use.

HI!;
for the background I'm using the good old xplanet soft.
I can give you the conky for the radar but it's with an Euro map; you'll have to change the wget adresse in the script an then modify the place and size of it...
I'm not really good in knowledge of "convert bash script" I got a little error when it's launched...A little help on the forum will be apreciate
Here's the SatPack
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/63154177/ConkySatMap.zip
Enjoy and feed-back !

There were 5 lines throughout the script:

local extents=cairo_text_extents_t:create()

mrpeachy came up with the fix to add two lines at the beginning and delete all of the other lines. Please thank him, not me:

Can I use these 5 lines of modification in any of them ?

For example in the isometric_bars.lua I did it (I have no errors):
#start modif at line 161

 --[[ the post: http://crunchbanglinux.org/forums/post/55927/#p55927
this one was easy (or i thought it was going to be)
http://omploader.org/tM2x0bg
Going to be a work in progress until i set up all the variables properly... and get my titles right smile
UPDATE- now you can change line thickness without messing it up.  Getting the lines right has made things alot less easy smile
also you can set font, font size and title position
