I came snooping, still using ver 9
 
Hi, I haven't posted here for a while. I came snooping to see what (any of) you have done to get conky 10 to work in the networking connections area.

I'm still forcing PcLinuxOs to use conky ver 9. I got so much help from here when I first set up conky, and I am forever grateful. Thank you.

I scrolled back far enough to see a post by Sector11 the he has stayed at ver 9 as well.

I tried to use a tool that was supposed to convert the conky script but it left my inbound and outbound connections full of errors.

All the best for the new year ahead, regards Glenn

using conky 1.10.6-5 and "${upspeed wlan0}" "${downspeed wlan0}" werks for me for up and down speeds but haven't been able to get "tcp_portmon" to work yet, if that's any help.

Thank you weirdwolf, I'll keep checking back here to see some of those fantastic screenshots.https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/rsrc.php...PAXP-deijE.gif

You're welcome and thanks as well.

I have 2 issues now, :-)

I made a compound error here, A typo, that I was sure I checked... xinerarama not ximerarama!
(The window won't go on the far right monitor-screen.
It used to be enough to have "alignment = 'top_right'," but in the old syntax.
and ximerarama_head has no effect (I read that somewhere...) ) end error... sorry.

and, I can't get it to display the hardware info from dmidecode... If I take the code and paste it into a terminal like Konsole (kde5, Plasma) I get the details formatted as desired.

Any guidance on these features would be appreciated. TIA

it's actually xinerama.

then you can use that command in an exec variable:
Code:
${execi 60 /path/to/script}

GlennsPref 06-20-2018 08:01 AM
Thank you ondoho, I had typos on my typos. I swear I haven't been drinking. :-)

I tried the "execi 60" in the script line but it hasn't changed anything.

Code:
${execi 60 dmidecode --type baseboard | grep 'Product' | cut -d' ' -f3-} by ${execi 60 dmidecode --type baseboard | grep 'Manufacturer' | cut -d' ' -f2-}
I'll leave it in and see what it's like in the morning.

Thank you for your interest.

ondoho 06-20-2018 01:48 PM
on my system dmidecode requires superuser privileges.
would require some tweaking to get it to work in conky.

GlennsPref 06-20-2018 07:13 PM
Hmm, it worked before with conky ver 1.9.xx

I'll look further into the syntax changes.

Thank you.

are you not first testing your shell commands in a shell before incorporating them into conky?
not sure what syntax changes you are talking about.

GlennsPref 06-21-2018 08:24 PM
Yes I do test them in the shell, conky on my system is owned by root:root and I can't edit it from my user account. ...so, I thought dmidecode and /dev/mem would not need extra permission. I must have changed access permission at some earlier incantation of my installation of this system. (I got a new 2Tb Harddrive and re-installed from clean partitions without any system files backup)

Anyway, I was just trying to be fancy and have the info looked up and reproduced on screen.

I've just typed the info in, so it looks the same.

Thanks, regards Glenn

You are quite right, I was on the wrong path there... My bad.

you mean the conky executable in /usr/bin is owned by root? that's normal.
you should still have rights to & execute it as a normal user, not as root. unless you're running puppy or something. :rolleyes:

GlennsPref 06-22-2018 06:38 PM
I mean the config file in /etc/conky.

I just can't remember what I was doing to allow it to work, I stopped using sudo about 3 years ago.

I thought maybe, I was giving access to dmidecode and/or /dev/mem to the normal user account (me).

Thanks anyway. Glenn

A conky that will be used on a raspberry pi4 connected to a monitor with resolution 900x14400 (a monitor take from an old laptop).
