Hey, Nice work. I had a little trouble getting it going and updated it a little (https://www.pling.com/p/1384943/). Let me know if this is OK.

Hello, i've did settings for conky, but when I start it, it shows some old ugly black sqaure with values.. Do I have to update graphic driver or?

Okay, now here's another problem. I want the hour dial to show a 24-hour graph. That is, it goes once around the ring per 24-hour period, starting with hour 0, and the last hour before midnight being 23. That's all okay, except that the point for the 0 hour - which should be at 0/360°, is instead at 345° (ie, one tick counterclockwise). How do I fix this? I changed the clock_h variable to this: name='time', arg='%H', max_value=24, x=110, y=80, graph_radius=53, graph_thickness=3, graph_unit_angle=15, graph_unit_thickness=30, and now my zero hour is one tick off. Any tips? Thanks

ExecutorElassus

pfft. nvm. Fixed that one, too. graph_unit_thickness has to be set to 15 as well. Still an awesome conky/lua script

ExecutorElassus

I get this: Conky: llua_do_call: function conky_main execution failed: attempt to call a nil value and no round meters :( Any tips? lua support is compiled in. Anything else I need? Cheers, EE

ExecutorElassus

fixed it: you need to build conky with the -lua-cairo bindings, and then it works fine. Thanks for the app!
