| I'm kind of curious now: are there many differences between gkrellm and conky? They seem almost exactly the same. |

Hi, I'm trying to configure my conky to how I want it but need some help.
Here's my .conkyrc file (I've stolen it from somewhere else)
| Code: |

First question is how do I get the conky to be transparent so that it looks like it is part of the desktop?
Thanks in advance. |

"emerge -C conky"
then
"emerge --depclean"
to delete anything that conky pulled in just for itself

the problem i have is that i did that then i downloaded source and installed in /usr/src and then tried to uninstall that and that is what i am having issues with now...should i just do this:
locate conky
then delete all the directories it brings back then clean install?
i was trying to get conky to build with wifi variables enabled and doing emerge conky i guess doesn't do that.... |

i have a question for anyone using conky with kde 4.3x with transparency enabled.
i have it working via the use of feh....ie i use feh to draw the background to match that of the kde desktop then i start conky after a 50 second or so delay.
the transparency works, however, i get a shadowy outline of conky....does anyone know how to get rid of this effect?
also if i move conky around the desktop, shouldnt it be able to update its background accoriding to its new coordinates? i am sure this used to happen in the past but it no longer happens.
i start conky as follows:
| Quote: | #! /bin/bash
feh --bg-scale `grep 'wallpaper=' ~/.kde4/share/config/plasma-desktop-appletsrc | tail --bytes=+11`
sleep 50
conky -& |
and my conkyrc file is:

just a follow up to this, i've solved the shadow effect problem. i discovered this only happens only when compositing is turned on in kde.
going to "system settings" -> Desktop -> "Desktop Effects" -> and unchecking the "Shadows" checkbox below compositing fixes the problem

"temperature_unit" is only used to set the readings to celsius or fahrenheit, it doesn't output anything itself.
What's the output of `ls /sys/class/hwmon/*`?

I like gkrellm better then conky, but started to use conky recently (in addition to gkrellm) to just show time in different timezones. Using e16 1.0.1 with 3 virtual desktops. Conky works fine on all desktops, but If I'm using desktop-1 or desktop-2, conky will shutdown after about 5 minutes. If I use only desktop-0 (the real root window), conky runs forever.
I wondering if conky has a problem with how e16 handles virtual desktops. Any ideas?

ok i followed tyhe instructions here : http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Lm_sensors to install lm_sensors.
after i ran sensors-detect, i found NO sensors:
| Code: | ...Sorry, no sensors were detected.
Either your sensors are not supported, or they are connected to an
I2C or SMBus adapter that is not supported.... |
this is on an appletv running gentoo of course. is there a way to check if my hardware actually has any sensors...? i did this hoping for temperature sensors. |

I just emerged conky with USE="ipv6 truetype vim-syntax wifi -X -audacious -debug -hddtemp -mpd -nano-syntax -nvidia -rss -smapi". I am intending to run console-only conky here on my server. First run with default configuration gives:
| Code: |
patrikas@serveris ~ $ conky
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 27: no such configuration: 'alignment'
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 29: no such configuration: 'border_width'

Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 48: no such configuration: 'stippled_borders'
Conky: use_spacer should have an argument of left, right, or none. 'no' seems to be some form of 'false', so defaulting to none.
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 52: no such configuration: 'show_graph_scale'
Conky: /etc/conky/conky.conf: 53: no such configuration: 'show_graph_range'

And I see many weird characters (perhaps ANSI escape sequences to set a color of the text ?) in the beginning of almost each line. I removed ${color}, ${*bar} tags and they disappeared, however I would like to achieve similar view of 'top' which updates display. Is it possible to do that ? Now it keeps writing each update to the console separately. If it's not then are there any other (maybe ncurses based) monitors with similar functionality ? |

I guess it shouldn't be like that since it's default configuration and it seems it fully depends on X USE flags. Just curious.. should I fill the bug report ? 
Later I changed it to:
