I have been in the process of customising my antiX install & come upon a rather peculiar situation. I'm calling two conky scripts via the ~/.config/openbox/autostart file. They are both currently located in my ~/ , they are called conkyrc & conkyrc2 . They start up fine.
The interesting thing is that another conky is starting too. I believe that it is the conky-default file, that apparently some distros locate in /usr/share/doc/conky-... antiX has a /usr/share/doc/conky-legacy-all/ directory, but the conky-default file is not there.
If someone could give me the location, or better yet, a way to turn the thing off, I'll be forever in your debt. :)
By the way, I have no ~/.config/autostart/conky.desktop file enabled, nor an ~/.xinitrc , so I'm at a bit of a loss...
[Solved] Where is the location of the conky-default file?

Re: Where is the location of the conky-default file?
You can find out the path of the running Conky's e.g. with it:or
Your problem is probably in the file
~/.desktop-session/desktop-session.conf
search for the line
comment them out or set them to "false".
Code: Select all
pgrep -a conky | cut -d ' ' -f2-
Code: Select all
ps aux | grep conky
Your problem is probably in the file
~/.desktop-session/desktop-session.conf
search for the line
Code: Select all
...
LOAD_CONKY="true"
...
Re: Where is the location of the conky-default file?
@male, thanks so much for your most excellent reply. :D
I went straight for the ~/.desktop-session/desktop-session.conf & changed the true to a false, logged out/in & the offending conky was gone!
I had never struck this ~/desktop-session directory before, so I hadn't thought to look there. I know now.
I always use Openbox, & I usually don't use a session manager (never use hibernate & the like either), so that may be why I'm unfamiliar with such?
Thanks again.
