    Lubuntu 12.04 : Conky disappears right at boot

    I have conky try to start at boot. It shows up for one second and then disappears. When I try to restart from from terminal I get the following

    Code:
    WARNING: gnome-keyring:: couldn't connect to: /tmp/keyring-UhMVzo/pkcs11: No such file or directory
    Conky: desktop window (1a0012f) is subwindow of root window (137)
    Conky: window type - override
    Conky: drawing to created window (0x3000001)
    Conky: drawing to double buffer


    It will not start. I am adding in the code for my conky files as well for review. Any help is appreciated.

    --[[
    Clock Rings by Linux Mint (2011) reEdited by despot77
    
    This script draws percentage meters as rings, and also draws clock hands if you want! It is fully customisable; all options are described in the script. This script is based off a combination of my clock.lua script and my rings.lua script.
    
    IMPORTANT: if you are using the 'cpu' function, it will cause a segmentation fault if it tries to draw a ring straight away. The if statement on line 145 uses a delay to make sure that this doesn't happen. It calculates the length of the delay by the number of updates since Conky started. Generally, a value of 5s is long enough, so if you update Conky every 1s, use update_num>5 in that if statement (the default). If you only update Conky every 2s, you should change it to update_num>3; conversely if you update Conky every 0.5s, you should use update_num>10. ALSO, if you change your Conky, is it best to use "killall conky; conky" to update it, otherwise the update_num will not be reset and you will get an error.
    
    To call this script in Conky, use the following (assuming that you save this script to ~/scripts/rings.lua):
        lua_load ~/scripts/clock_rings.lua
        lua_draw_hook_pre clock_rings

    Re: Lubuntu 12.04 : Conky disappears right at boot

    Try
    Code:
    own_window_type normal
    or
    Code:
    own_window_type desktop
    instead of
    Code:
    own_window_type override
    Also you may need to delay the start of conky at boot, to let the window manager load first.
    This is needed in unity ...dont know about lubuntu.
    Use the -p (secs) option to pause the starting of conky.
    eg
    Code:
    conky -p 15
    or if your defining a particular config
    Code:
    conky -p 15 -c /path/to/your/conkyconfig

    Dead on. Thank you very much. Window normal cleared it up!
