O Ubuntu 16.04 Gnome Conky não funciona corretamente

Eu baixei e instalei o Ubuntu gnome 16.04 e instalei ícones, temas e muito mais. Finalmente eu instalei, conky-managermas não funciona correto assim.

Conky mudou o conkyrcformato para lua nas versões recentes, o seamod original (e 99% de todos os outros conkys por aí) ainda tem o formato antigo.

Felizmente, o usuário maxiwell no Github já converteu o popular tema seamod para Ubuntu 16.04. Como o askubuntu / Stackoverflow prefere fonte em vez de links, aqui o conkyrc.lua:

Use um seamod atualizado e tente definir o tipo de janela para encaixar ou normal

No Ubuntu Gnome 16.04, a atualização do maxiwell do seamod funcionou para mim (como mencionado na resposta do emk2203), mas desde que editei o conkyrc.luapara usar o tipo de janela 'dock' ou 'normal' e usar as dicas do gerenciador de janelas. Por exemplo, os seguintes são os principais valores de configuração a serem usados:

own_window_type = 'dock',
own_window_hints = 'undecorated,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager,below',

own_window_type = 'normal'com o acima exposto own_window_hintstambém funcionou bem.

Cuidado , o maxiwell's conkyrc.luapossui um erro de digitação, onde own_window_typeé definido duas vezes. Remova a duplicação se você a usar.

O que não funcionou:

• own_window_type = 'desktop' não funciona bem, pois o conky desaparece ao clicar nos itens da área de trabalho.
• own_window_type = 'override'causa X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)no Ubuntu Gnome e também não suporta transparência em segundo plano.

E, é claro, ele precisa do conky-allpacote, não conky-std, pois o seamod depende do cairo para desenhar os medidores / anéis.

Meu próprio exemplo de trabalho

Retrabalhei e peguei a atualização de maxiwell aqui . Ele possui um leia-me com instruções sobre como instalar e iniciar automaticamente o conky (esperamos que funcione com a maioria dos ambientes de área de trabalho do Gnome 3.18+ com o conky 1.10+). Minha versão também possui correções para incluir uma borda e um plano de fundo semitransparente.

Isso pode não ser de muita ajuda ... Estou usando um ambiente de desktop diferente. Mas eu tive alguns problemas semelhantes hoje. Meus anéis e fontes estavam todos bagunçados.

Acontece que meus anéis estavam no diretório errado. Mas enviei uma resposta aqui em outro tópico. Isso pode justificar uma investigação ou colocá-lo no caminho certo novamente. Boa sorte!

Conky não usa fonte instruída com erro "Impossível carregar fonte Xft"
