Description: This is the customization that I'm using with Conky and Gnome. The resolution is for 1280 pixels wide screen, so I have included SVG file, so that each user, adapt it to your desktop. It is made with Inkscape and using layers. If you like enjoy it, improving, translated and adapted to their needs.

Hello
I really loved this one! I am actually using it right now and will be using it!!
Here is a simple python script to retrieve public IP. just save it as myip.py or something and change the code in conky to point to the right filename!
[color=#ff0000]#!/usr/bin/env python
import urllib2
myip = urllib2.urlopen("http://whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp").read()
print myip[/color]
How to get that script working? I've put it in .conkytheme and changed the code to:
${goto 15}Uptime: ${goto 100}${uptime}${goto 512}Public IP: ${goto 612}${execi 10800 ~/.conkytheme/myip.py}
I'm a noobie so I think something's wrong :D
Thanks in advance.
First - save it without [color] tags :)
i.e.:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import urllib2
myip = urllib2.urlopen("http://whatismyip.com/automation/n09230945.asp").read()
print myip
Also - command for using should be
${execi 10800 python ~/.scripts/ip.py}
Cheers!
wow i am speechless... conky has never looked better. Two thumbs up my friend keep it up!
could you share an svg for 1920 wide resolutions?
it be great if you could send it via email.
thanks for the awesome work ^_^
Well done, very beautiful all around.
You use a script to fetch the public IP that you haven't included in the pack. If you could provide a link I'd be grateful.
This is really nice, i never use conky so i install that and works really nice... Maybe you can put a "guide" to show the steps to install conky and use the theme... Here is what i do to make work conky+thisTheme:
1. sudo apt-get install conky
2. extract the .conkytheme folder in my home folder
3. run conky -c /home/myuser/.conkytheme/conkyrc
Cheers!

oh, python command not necessary of course! ${execi 10800 ~/.scripts/ip.py}
it seems you forgot to include the ip.sh script in your rar file. Can you please include it! thx
I'm not seeing anything when connected to wireless networks. no IP, no speed, nothing at all. What ought I to adjust to fix this?
Just change "eth0" to "wlan0". This will fix that!
