Very pretty @male!

@sunrat

thanks, siducer!

The required information for your computer you're investigating:

Code: Select all

sensors

and

Code: Select all

ls -l /sys/class/hwmon

my changed lines in the lua-Script:
389

Code: Select all

        cairo_show_text (cr,"cpu0: "..conky_parse("${cpu cpu0}").."%, "..conky_parse("${freq_g cpu0}").."Ghz, "..conky_parse("${hwmon 2 temp 2}").."°C")

398

Code: Select all

        cairo_show_text (cr,"cpu1: "..conky_parse("${cpu cpu1}").."%, "..conky_parse("${freq_g cpu1}").."Ghz, "..conky_parse("${hwmon 2 temp 4}").."°C")

So you only give two cores to. Of course you can also specify all 5 cores, but then you have to configure the remaining three in the Lua script.

Thanks male.

the

Code: Select all

sensors

command confirmed I have a quad core cpu, but I couldn't get the cpu1 readings to show up. I tried your changed lines, didn't work.

In the end I commented out the cpu1 parts in the lua script. That leaves me with a gap in the conky where the cpu1 top processes are supposed to show up, but it's better than the whole conky not working.

Please show the output of the commands:

Code: Select all

sensors -u

and

Code: Select all

ls -l /sys/class/hwmon

so for cpu0 in line 389, you have to

Code: Select all

hwmon 1 temp 2

and for the cpu1 in line 398

Code: Select all

hwmon 1 temp 3 

enter

Looking for some help with an old conky I'm trying to get going again.

The screen shot is attached and one of the files used in the conky is below.

Code: Select all

#!/usr/bin/env python

import os, sys

filename = "http://scores.espn.go.com/mlb/standings | egrep -A20 'American League'"
cmd = os.popen("lynx -nonumbers -dump %s" % filename)

output = cmd.read()
cmd.close()
print output

As you can see in the screen shot, the portion at the bottom appears to be off. Bottom line should be at the top, under the words "American League"

I tried the URL and it works.

Is it possible there is something wrong with the $PATH?

If you replace the URL with this, it should work.
http://www.espn.com/mlb/standings
apparently there was a change of web address
so,

Code: Select all

filename = "http://www.espn.com/mlb/standings | egrep -A20 'American League'"

(Unfortunately I can't see your Conky-Screenshot again)

Thanks for the changes. When I tried the original URL it went to the website you provided. Must be defaulted to the new site.

Changed the URL and get the output on the screen.

(Unfortunately I can't see your Conky-Screenshot again)

I screen capture with the default tools provided by MX and every time I'm told the size of my file is too large. So I then play with it to get it down to a size the forum will accept. Then they are too small for anyone to look at. The file I'm trying to upload right now is 249 KB and I'm told it is too large, only 300 KB allowed.
