Thanks John.Michael.Kane but I still get the following line, despite the fact that I, like the guy from who i copied have a dual core processor (though it is intel and not amd, does that make a difference?)

Output:

Conky: attempting to use more CPUs then you have!

EDIT:

I just realized that it also says this:

obj->data.cpu_index 2 info.cpu_count 1

I have mine setup in 3 different places in my desktop:

${font Purisa:bold:size=12}Yahoo!Mail $font- ${font Purisa:size=9}you have ${pop3_unseen pop.mail.yahoo.com username password [-i] [-p]} msgs$font[/CODE]

Dear victorbrca, following your template code, I included in my conkyrc the following line (of course I put my own user name and pwd):
${pop3_unseen pop.mail.yahoo.com username password [-i] [-p]}
Well, it didn't work.
When I run conky from a terminal it returns the following error
"POP3 server login failed: .yahoo.com 2.38.1"

Any ideas why? I am sure you realize I am a real noob, so any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank ou in advance

Id love to use the public ip portion of this, but for some reason Conky doesnt show the actual IP address- its just blank..

Here's how mine works:

In your home directory, make a directory called .scripts (if it doesn't already exist) and in that directory, make a file called .wan-ip

Inside that file, paste this:

wget -q -O - checkip.dyndns.org|sed -e 's/.*Current IP Address: //' -e 's/<.*$//'

Then, in your conkyrc, use this:

${execi 36000 /home/username/.scripts/.wan-ip}

Replacing "username" with your username, of course.

Killer. I just found an error in my .conkyrc that's been staring me in the face since I started dabbling in the art.

This line:

${font OpenLogos:size=13}${color #fff000}T ${color #ff6800}u${font}${font Nimbus Sans L:size=10}${color white}$alignr ${time %a}, ${time %b %e %G}   ${time %T}${font}

Prints this text today:
(GNOME Symbol)(Ubuntu Symbol) Mon, Dec 31 2008 10:17:30

The year is incorrect, due to the format operand %G. %G gives the Year of ISO week.

%G year of ISO week number (see %V); normally useful only with %V

The correct operand should be %Y, which gives the simple year number.

My apologies to those who used my code as a base to build upon.

[harlan]

Mine is very simple.

First you should have a folder in your home dir labeled Weather inside that folder should be two files a weather.sh and a weather.xslt file.

Should you not have a Weather folder one can made using the command below.

 mkdir ~/Weather

After which you can place the those two files in said folder.

Also the weather.sh file should be marked as executable. To do so you simply right click on it go to properties > permissions > check 'execute' box.

You should also have curl installed.

gksudo aptitude install curl

The way I set set up dual conky's was using this post
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...pt#post3777282

Also this below line is pass through one conky file only

${execi 60 ~/.weather/weather.sh "my zip"}

In the end you should end up with.

1) A folder name Weather in your home dir.
2) One folder labeled .conkyscripts
3) Two conky scripts in the above folder labeled conkyscript0 conkyscript1
4) conkyscript0 is used to monitor your system info only
5) conkyscript1 is used to monitor your weather
6) A .startconky file in your home dir as well

Thanks but i still get same error. I give up on this, i will use a desklete or something. Thanks for your help JMK

Hi folks,

My conky weather output looks like this:

Buenos Aires, Argentina Updated: 7:11 PM TEMP: 34C Feels Like: 38C Pressure: 1007.1mb Conditions: Partly Cloudy Visibility: 10.0km Wind: 0km/h (Calm) Tomorrow: 21C to 27C Forecast: Scattered T-Storms

I'd like it to look like this:

Buenos Aires, Argentina
Updated:             7:11 PM
TEMP: 34C    Feels Like: 38C
Pressure:           1007.1mb

Wind:           0km/h (Calm)

Is this possible?
