conkyproblem with rss-reader and openboxmenu

dilch · 2009-11-06 22:50:59

Ich habe zwei conkyprobleme/i've got two conkyproblems

1. Ich möchte mein conky auf den kompletten Bildschirm ausbreiten. Momentan hat es noch die "out of the box" maße. Meine "Leiste" möchte ich rechts behalten, nur soll auf den linken rand nun auch etwas.
Nun habe ich die Einträge meiner alten Liste einfach nach Rechts verschoben mittels go to, aber mein Rss-reader macht Probleme
${font pizzadude bullets:size=10}t${font} FAZ:
${font DejaVu Sans:size=6}${rss http://www.faz.net/s/Rub/Tpl~Epartner~S … ker~E1.xml 10 item_titles 3}${font}
die nächste newszeile wird nicht verschoben, irgendwelche lösungsvorschläge?

2. außerdem, gibt es eine option, wie ich auch mit erweitertem conky per rechtsklick das openbox-menu bekomme oder kann man conky nicht "so durchsichtig" einstellen.

1. i would like to expand my conky to the hole monitor, at the moment it has the crunchbang-outofthebox-size. i would like to keep my mointor and everything on the right side, but i want something more on the left wink
so i moved the entries to teh right with go to but my rss-reader makes a problem:
${font pizzadude bullets:size=10}t${font} FAZ:
${font DejaVu Sans:size=6}${rss http://www.faz.net/s/Rub/Tpl~Epartner~S … ker~E1.xml 10 item_titles 3}${font}
the next newsline isn't moved right, any solutions?

2. second, is there any body-command for conky that i get my openboxmenu even with a rightclick on a part of conky? because i will loose this menu with expanding conky on the hole monitor, will i?

momentan sieht mein conkymenu unausgeweitet wie folgt aus/at the moment, my conkyconfig (not expanded) looks like this

1. to use the whole screen you can either modify these values:

minimum_size 200 200
maximum_width 240

or you can set up multiple conkys using

conky -c ~/path/to/other/config

see the wiki page for more info
http://crunchbanglinux.org/wiki/conky#m … ky_windows

regarding question 2 the only work around is using W-<space> to view the main menu or to leave a gap around tint2 where you can click.

thx, i will use teh second soultion with another conky. but i know, how to enlarge conky, the problem was the second rss-line. but it's hard to explain, during my next tries i will make a screenshot;)

thx

EDIT:
another question, why is in the autostart.sh

conky -q &

and not a similar command like in the wiki/you have posted

but this would be correct, or?

# Launch Conky
conky -q &
conky -c .conkyrc1 &

EDIT2:
both are starting but they are blinking... one second is the elft and one second the right visible... not so good;) any ideas what could be the reason?

another question, how can i change conkywonky so all conkys are restarted? at the moment just the first one starts again. thx

anonymous · 2009-11-07 19:57:06

Just replace "conky-start" with the commands for each of your conkys. Or if you created a script to start all your conkys (at once), then just put the name of the script.

#!/bin/sh
if [ "$(pidof conky)" ]; then
    killall conky
    conky-start
    exit
else
    conky-start
    exit
fi

changing 'own_window' to no can cause problems like flickering, i think its to do with the setup, many people have used it with out problems, i personally cant

regarding 'conky -q &'

the -q flag just means quiet, it isn't realy important when autostarting

with this you are just defining a different file to use, otherwise it would launch with the default config file
conky -c .conkyrc1 &

ill update the wiki to make it clearer.
