Re: The MX-17 conkies
I've booted to live quite a few times so far. A couple of times, on different hardware, Conky is corrupted.
The 'Minutes' appear to be over-writing each other, and it continues to get worse.

I don't think we can move the installer icon. If so, its tricky. I'll look into it.

Could you have more than one version of Gotham ticked in Conky Manager, with your sessions saved on logoff?chrispop99 wrote:I've booted to live quite a few times so far. A couple of times, on different hardware, Conky is corrupted.

Re: The MX-17 conkies
I have time now to look at it, and will get back.

Re: The MX-17 conkies
OK, not too bad after you've seen a few of these:
--I started by selecting as you did to reduce the name of the month to the short form, and got the same mess you did.
--I used the list of Time Formats in Scripts to identify the code for day of the week: A
--looked for the offset in front of that, found ${offset -200}
--changed that number to -250, saved--and it was worse, meaning I had it going the wrong way
--changed it again to -150, and it looked pretty good
Hope this is clear as a procedure.

Re: The MX-17 conkies
I saw this happen over-write once. But as soon as I moved it with ALT+right click it went away.

Good observation: the background window (visible when transparency=opaque) might be interfering again.

Re: The MX-17 conkies
In MX-Core blue, the script needs to be corrected by changing "undecorate" to "undecorated"
Also, the Syslog command is not working, but I don't know how to fix itWhat we would like to see is what you get with this bash command:
Code: Select all
own_window_hints undecorated,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager,below
Code: Select all
${execi 10 tail -n6 /var/log/syslog | awk '{print " ",$5,$6,$7,$8,$9,$10}' | fold -w40}
Code: Select all
sudo cat /var/log/syslog | tail
