Re: Show us your conky

Hello

Since clicking in conky no longer works, I've worked around the problem with a transparent dashboard that hides automatically.

no conky & dashboard

Just conky & dasboard hidden

conky & dashbord

That does it too

Re: Show us your conky

I have a CONKY from April 2010, creator is @olgmen.

Time; Calendar day; Temperature of the first two CPU;
Process relief; Frequency, as well as down and up.
Red flashes the 'request to take a break because I have been sitting on the computer for over 2 hours. 

The proportions no longer matched the original. That's why I have this
in the configuration files 'somewhat shifted'. 
Compare the original image. Am, I blind?

@S11, can you help? (Of course, everyone else is also welcome    )

No, you are not blind.

Horizontal:
Take a look at the 11th pica point under the 1 in 14 and 12 - there is a slight difference that really shows when looking at the 11 under the 12 on the left and 09 under the 57 on the right

Vertical:
on the right the days from 09, 10, 11 are dropping to the 12 and 13 14 15 stay aligned with the 12

Another thing leading to the out of alignment is the "RED 2 Hour" notice - different font and size than the original text showing "Time Up:"
The original "Time up" text is slightly higher then the 12 in seconds
BUT your "2 Hr Notice" is slightly below the bottom of the 57 seconds.

Also the bottom of the hour 08 aligns very close to the top pf the day numbers 11 through 17 whereas the in the other image the highest day number, 09, does not come yo to the bottom of the hour 14.

I have a problem as I do not have "PT Sans" I have "PT Mono"
I'm a firm believer in where positioning is important "mono is a must"

Breakfast back later,

Re: Show us your conky

OK; I changed the font to PT Mono for my test and eliminated the lua script.

The "week1.sh" script you are using Unklar does not do any 'voffset' adjusting for the first 3 or 4 days.
IT SHOULD!

Notice how the first three numbers drop down a
little at the top and a lot on the bottom the
bottom.  Sane with the last three digits but
in reverse.
And the last three drop ftom the top.
voffset must be used in ALL cases of font
change unless you want the raw affect

Yes, life, going for an operation soon ... maybe Tuesday.

OH OH!  For as much as 5.1 has "cairo_xlib", you have an Intel CPU, I don't so that lua script is looking for something not on my computer.

Re: Show us your conky

I tried what my conky uses:

${exec sensors | grep -n 'Tctl' | awk -F'+' '{print $2}' | awk -F'.' '{print $1}'}
${exec sensors | grep -n 'edge' | awk -F'+' '{print $2}' | awk -F'.' '{print $1}'}

Re: Show us your conky

So I change a few lines to match my system and still problems with lua - this time 5.1

 2025·08·15 @ 15:21:17 ~
   $ Conky: llua_load: /media/5/conky/olgmen/olgmen_scale.lua:14: module 'cairo_xlib' not found:

You are going to need a lua expert with an Intel chip.
So sorry, looked like a fun project.

I think the module cairo_xlib' needs to be restarted... (Computer    )

Re: Show us your conky

Any other resulting path should also be possible.

for m in /sys/class/hwmon/* ; do echo -n "$m = " ; cat $m/name ; done

In the original, he has coretemp.0 and coretemp.1
I don't have coretemp.1   

 2025·08·15 @ 16:01:09 ~
   $ for m in /sys/class/hwmon/* ; do echo -n "$m = " ; cat $m/name ; done
/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon0 = k10temp
/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon1 = asus
/sys/class/hwmon/hwmon2 = amdgpu
 
 2025·08·15 @ 16:01:19 ~
   $ 

hwmon0 = CPU
hwmon2 = GPU (DUH)
that's all I get no "_input" files under hwmon1

Changed my one liner to reflect 'hwmon' - hopefully they will not move around like they use to a few years back.

EDIT-ADDITIONAL: from stinkeye

Sometimes you might find that when you run sensors after a restart the sensors load in a different order k10temp-pci-00c3 may not necessarily be shown first. If this is the case the above commands will give you a different reading, as (in the example above) you are matching the first instance of temp1. To get around this, you can call each sensor individually by typing the name of the sensor after the sensors command like so:

sensors k10temp-pci-00c3

Then you can use similar grep and awk commands to get the temp number

sensors k10temp-pci-00c3 | grep 'temp1' | awk -F'+' '{print $2}' | awk -F'.' '{print $1}'

You don't need the sed commands as there will only be one temp1 for grep to match

WARNING I suspect that the loading order of the sensors will also affect the contents of the hwmon folders used in method 2 below. Note: confirmed, it does - at times (thank you VastOne).

So I rebooted and same results:

Re: Show us your conky

Hello, my friend, thank you very much for your help! 
Your found the error.

circlewriting
It was lines 397 cpu1 and 410 cpu2 of the Lua script.
In both cases, the y-value was changed from 220 to 210.
