115 pages, I have some reading to do.
Just got cronky, having read various pages here ... have done nothing with it.
I am surprised at some of the things I see here.

I also have the, ConkyFAQ, ConkyHowTo, ConkySettings and the ConkyVariables, but they all look like a programmers gide to a migrane headache for me.

Now I have a question. Is the bottom part of the attached image (I found it here) "cronky" as well?

Oopps, start of page 116.

Nope, that's some sort of desklet.

OK, that answers that ... now to figure it all out

Can't seem to keep it on my desktop, it keeps disappearing on me.

I'll work on it. Thanks for the links.

EDIT: Those links are what I have already in ZIM

Try adding these:

own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type override

Try adding these:

own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type override

Just as soon as I find out where to add these lines, I will.

Me trying to get the commands to stick -->

I have them saved now in my email for future reference.

I'm still a Linux greenhorn. I'm sure somewhere in these 116 pages there will be a post explaining it.

Thanks for the tip.

At the top of your .conkyrc file:

gedit ~/.conkyrc

You will see something like this:

double_buffer yes
update_interval 1
background yes

own_window yes
own_window_transparent yes
own_window_type override
#own_window_type root
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

Make sure yours is the same as that. Note the "update_interval 1" line. That indicates how long between refreshes for conky. So mine is set to 1, which has conky refreshing itself every second. Set it to 5, it refreshes every 5 seconds.

Anthony Haslam, I love the LCD look of your conky.
