I'm not able to answer, at least properly. I know it was hard to satisfy the dependency because, well, dependency hell. I did get it to compile by uninstalling a chunk of the maemo build environment or something. I'll post more info later. I'm just not sure why when I type conky --v it shows no "lua", so I must have disabled it again at some point.

Well, thanks for the effort nevertheless.

Tried your deb.Installs fine but no go after that. Same symptom as mentioned earlier in the thread: it runs but no visible window. It does seem to consume quite a bit of cpu, though.

I thought I´d mention it here for it seems a bit early to file a bug report. If you prefer that, however, let me know and I´ll file one.

Regards,
Anthonie

How about providing a "well sorted" conky file with your first Post? I'm not emotionally attached to mine.

Damn, nothing is ever simple. I'll try uninstalling and reinstalling the old version, then upgrading to mine.

-edit-

no issues doing that for me, both versions work on my n900
probably i have an extra or different version of some library and i packaged this thing wrong so it's not fixing that during the install.
wish i could just reflash mine, but there's gotta be another way to figure this out.

haha if we ever figure out what is causing this, i'll file the report myself. i'm just worried if this thread gets to be 50 pages, and someone reports a problem on page 25, i'll never see it. So far, I can keep up

You mean the .conf file? It's part of the install, it puts a default one into /etc/conky/conky.conf
and then conky.sh tries to load the one from MyDocs, or /etc/conky if it can't find it.
You could try copying the one from /etc/conky to /MyDocs to see if it's just loading the wrong .conf file or something.

If I start conky from xterm the I get already mentioned problems. Also, changing fonts doesn't solve anything. And with version 1.8 I had the same problems.

I don't know what a "Box stock" conky file looks like, I just figured you might have a good one you've been working on?

Creamy Goodness | # 19 | 2010-10-27, 17:08 | Report

It looks like the "good" conky.conf I made doesn't copy to /etc/conky/conky.conf
I looked on mine and there is some garbage one there I never wrote.
Well, there is one old one that got renamed to conky.conf.dpkg-old somewhere along the install/reinstall process.
I'll do what les said and provide the .conf file seperately for now, you will need to manually copy it to /home/user/MyDocs/conky.conf
(remove the .txt extension)

It works with this conf file.
