For the weathet temperature you can you this line and replace the city: ${font Neuropolitical:size=13}${color 324051}${alignr}temp: ${execi 3600 curl wttr.in/Montreal?format='%t\n'} ${font}

When I first installed this, I ran into a little bug where the network ring was overflowing and running into the text. Decided to share the fix with everyone. Replace: Quote:

local function setup_rings(cr,pt) local str='' local value=0 str=string.format('${%s %s}',pt['name'],pt['arg']) str=conky_parse(str) value=tonumber(str) pct=value/pt['max'] draw_ring(cr,pct,pt) end
With: Quote:
local function setup_rings(cr,pt) local str='' local value=0 str=string.format('${%s %s}',pt['name'],pt['arg']) str=conky_parse(str) value=tonumber(str) pct=value/pt['max'] -- Maximum should only be 1.000 (100%) if (pct > 1) then pct = 1 end draw_ring(cr,pct,pt) end
This makes sure that the rings always stay within the 100% boundary.

thank you :)

Many Thanks despot!!! Great work. I make some revisions and added icon for RHEL6/Scientific-Linux6/CentOS6/PRIUS6. Removed swap and disk usage meters. Added top 5 processes by CPU and top 5 by MEM usage. Some colour modifications. Couldn't get the weather part working, so I commented it out. I'll try to fix that sometime. Here's the link to the file: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=149305 Best regards

Hey there, Thanks for this cool conky! I just have a small question. conky-all works on ubuntu, however i'm using fedora. My problem is with the weather tag. I though it comes straigh with conky but I see ${weather} instead of the real temperature. Which is the .rpm for this "script"? Thanks again and gl!

Ahmose

Nevermind, got it! silly me. lol Thanks <3 :D

frankjoe

thanks for this, my desktop looks really sweet now. Im allowed to upload my customization of this? I edited all the configs for dual core and wlan. Then made launchers to start each color and one to stop it. No terminal needed.

Ahmose

Do you think I could get the dual core to? I would appreciate it! :) <3

Im having issues installing this. Im using Ubuntu 10.10. I installed conky: "sudo apt-get install conky" Made the .lua directory: "mkdir ~/.lua Made the conky directory: mkdir ~/.conky Made the font directory: mkdir /.fonts Copyed the rings file into .lua: cp clock_rings.lua ~/.lua Copyed the conky file to the conky folder: cp conkyrc ~/.conky Copyed the image file to the conky folder: cp logo.png ~/.conkyrc And finally I start conky: concky And I get the standard conky display and not the custom one?

despot77

First install the font neuropolitical !!! Open the terminal, type this command: " sudo apt-get install conky-all" (necessarily conky-all) Create a folder called ".conky" in your home directory and copy the logo.png image to this folder In your home directory create a folder called ".lua" and inside this folder, create a new folder called "scripts". Here, copy the "clock_rings.lua" file (necessarily "scripts") Copy the "conkyrc" file in your home directory and rename it to ".conkyrc" To set the weather for your city, go to http://weather.noaa.gov and search for your city. The URL will then look like this (this is for my country / city): http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/current/LQBK.html - copy the code at the end (LQBK in my case) and in the ~/.conkyrc file, replace "LQBK" with your code
