Conky won't run in Debian 8 Jessie (Gnome 3)
I can't get conky to run in Jessie. If I use my .conkyrc from Ubuntu 14.04 it doesn't clear the old text and the display becomes blurry. If I convert the rc to Lua conky complains about the -- characters used for comments, which have replaced the # symbols from before. The instructions to build conky from source are vague && incomprehensible.
.conkyrc (Lua Style)
Code:
conky.config = {
-- UBUNTU-CONKY

-- Ubuntu / Debian Gnome, without the need for any external scripts.
-- Based on conky-jc and the default .conkyrc.

-- - netstat connections to your computer
-- -- Pengo (conky@pengo.us)
