Conky Configuration file. The idea is an adaptation of the existing theme Conky Colors: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/CONKY-colors?content=92328
Suggestions from d2_racing, arch forums (where I found the original configuration which I have adapted to suite my needs) and conkyForecast.
v1.1 - Minor Modifications - Changed fonts (refer to detailed installation instructions for download location of new fonts) - Added CPU Temperature - Changed MPD Now Playing Info to separate title and artist
v1.0 - Initial Release Bug reports and suggestions are welcome.
Conky: use_spacer should have an argument of left, right, or none. 'yes' seems to be some form of 'true', so defaulting to right.
Conky: statfs '/media/disk': No such file or directory
Conky: statfs '/media/disk-1': No such file or directory
Conky: unknown variable rhythmbox
Conky: forked to background, pid is 1893

cp: cannot stat `': No such file or directory

It runs but i'm missing parts.
/media/disk and /media/disk-1 do not exist. Check how are your external (I am assuming these are external HDs) mounted and what is the true mount point.
$Rhythmbox - remove the $. It is not a variable.
use_spacer - chose a value from one available. But this is a harmless warning.
The problem with this is that I am not using gnome. I am using KDE. That is the problem.
I think I made a mistake by posting it here, I should post it on kde-look.org.
If you are interested, the theme is Bespin (icons + appearance), Plasma theme is Tibanna.

Hey, that a extremely cool screenshot, so U need to tell us which is the icon theme, what panel are you using an so on !!!!!! Nice shots, really nice.
The problem with this is that I am not using gnome. I am using KDE. That is the problem. I think I made a mistake by posting it here, I should post it on kde-look.org. If you are interested, the theme is Bespin (icons + appearance), Plasma theme is Tibanna.
Very nice! Thanks for sharing. :)
Thanks. :)
