Hi guys,
I recently made the switch to XFCE, and mostly it's working well. Quick,
clean interface etc.
The one thing I can't fix is Conky. It used to display on the nautilus
desktop... and it still starts up with no errors... but I can't see where it
goes!
starting from the command line gives
m...@alida:~$ conky
Conky: desktop window (1e00003) is subwindow of root window (15a)
Conky: window type - override
Conky: drawing to created window (0x4a00001)
Conky: drawing to double buffer
and my conf file is fairly standard:
m...@alida:~$ cat .conkyrc
# Create own window instead of using desktop (required in nautilus)
own_window yes
own_window_type override
own_window_transparent yes
## apparently this is not needed in XFCE
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager
# Stop stuff going to stdout
out_to_console no
# Use double buffering (reduces flicker)
double_buffer yes
# fiddle with window
use_spacer right
# Use Xft?
use_xft yes
xftfont andalemono:size=8:weight=700
xftalpha 0.8
text_buffer_size 2048
uppercase yes
# Update interval in seconds
update_interval 5.0
# Draw shades?
draw_shades no
# Text stuff
draw_outline no # amplifies text if yes
uppercase no # set to yes if you want all text to be in uppercase
# borders
draw_borders no
#stippled_borders 3
#border_margin 9
#border_width 10
# Default colors and also border colors, grey90 == #e5e5e5
default_color black
#default_color white
own_window_colour brown
own_window_transparent yes
# Alignment

# Gap between borders of screen and text

# load lua script(s)
lua_load /home/matt/bin/conky/readfile.lua

Has anyone else had/fixed this problem?
Otherwise... some pointers on how to investigate this further would be
awesome.
Cheers!
