Conky?

Hey,

Could anyone help me install Conky on my Suse 11 install?

I’ve never used Conky before so I don’t have a clue where to begin!

Thanks :slight_smile:

Have a look here, kind of old but might be usable
‘Conky Problem - openSUSE Forums’ (http://tinyurl.com/6kjcv7)
‘Conky - openSUSE Forums’ (http://tinyurl.com/6xmt5y)
‘Conky - Hardware Monitor - openSUSE Forums’
(http://tinyurl.com/5qkf3q)

Also conky is available in yast from one of the repositories of
opensuse 11.0

Hi,

I’m completely new to suse and pretty much linux in general, I do have
some exp with ubuntu and a few other distro’s so I’m not totally green
so to speak …lol

Anyways on to my problem, I’ve run conky in every distro I’ve tried
with no problems and after following this I’ve managed to install it on
my Suse 11.1 install (I ran into a few problems with install
originally…lol).

Anyways, I type in conky in my terminal ad it starts up …great :slight_smile:

but for the life of me I can’t find the darn file to edit it, it starts
up in a windowed type mode and I’m assuming with defaults and would
reallyu like to edit it to my personal pref’s so any help directing meto
as where I might find the config file would be greatly appreciated. :slight_smile:

Very impressed with suse 11.1 thus far, just need to work out some
kinks and my search for a distro and bouncing back and forth between
linux and win will be over :stuck_out_tongue:

Thank you in advance for any replies :slight_smile:

Please try reading the second link above your post, there seems to have
a post where to look for. It might be the one you are looking for.
