~/.fonts
~/scripts
~/.conky
!! [link]
I've Ubuntu 10.04 and I've installed conky from terminal - sudo apt-get install conky
My problem is that:
- I don't have a .fonts in my home/username
- I don't have a .scripts in the above folder
- The folder /home/username/.conky also doesn't exists...
conky runs fine, and my search showed that it is located in
/etc/conky
and has two files, conky.conf and conky_no_x11.conf
and conky is run from /usr/bin: ./conky
How should I install your theme?
PS: conky runs fine
You can simply create these folders.
Open a terminal for example and run:
mkdir ~/scripts
mkdir ~/.fonts
mkdir ~/.conky
Then copy the corresponding files into these folders. (instructions in the Readme)
After that you can set up the email and weather scripts (like described in the Readme).
To create the start script (in ubuntu for example) open up a terminal and run:
sudo gedit /usr/bin/conky_start
Paste this into the file and save it (replace "Mira_green" with the color-scheme you want):
#!/bin/bash
conky -c ~/.conky/Mira_green/.conkyrc_clock &
conky -c ~/.conky/Mira_green/.conkyrc_weather &
conky -c ~/.conky/Mira_green/.conkyrc_sys &
conky -c ~/.conky/Mira_green/.conkyrc_net &
conky -c ~/.conky/Mira_green/.conkyrc_disk &
conky -c ~/.conky/Mira_green/.conkyrc_mpd
Then run:
sudo chmod a+x /usr/bin/conky_start
conky_start
You can add the "conky_start" script to the autostart of your gnome-session if you want.
I should mention that this conky theme is from 2008 and not up to date. It works but conky has more features now that make some scripts obsolete... I'll release and update after the exam period that will be easier to install!
It worked! (the vast majority of stuff). Weather didn't run because conky seems not to take proxy settings, etc. but most of things showed fine.
You're right with:
"I should mention that this conky theme is from 2008 and not up to date. It works but conky has more features now that make some scripts obsolete"
So, I'll follow u and wait until you update these great conky themes
Thanks !!
