Try adding the path to your mail. ie:

Code: Select all

${new_mails /yourpathto/Mail/INBOX}
or for pop3 mail:

Code: Select all

${color green}NewMail: $color${pop3_unseen host user pass}
of course, replace "host", "user" and "pass" with your own.

imap mail can be used by replacing "pop3_unseen" with "imap_unseen"

Thanks Trapster, that did it. Here is a screenshot of the conky display I am currently using

This solves a long term irritation I have with Seamonkey. I leave my email prog running minimised all the time, and have it set to periodically check for new mail. I have it set to play a sound when a new mail arrives, but that can be a bit sketchy on the reliability front, and of course, if I leave the area I miss it. I now have a visual indicator thanks to conky (and Trapster). I should change conkyrc so that the email indicator shows where my current wifi signal strength displays as this area of my screen is rarely obscured. This is great because it actually aids useability, and is not just eyecandy.........

Also, move xlock icon down, to above pupzip or conky will cover xlock icon.

For puppy3 nothing else is needed. For puppy 4 (dingo) libxcb and libidn are needed.

conky-1.6.1.pet
md5sum

-----------------------------

libxcb-1.0.pet
md5sum

libidn-0.6.10.pet
md5sum


Sorry for raising an old thread but everytime i click on one of those links it ask me for the password for

Cheers!!

Hi,

** a friendly warning **

the conky1.7.1.1.pet will overwrite a exsisting .conkyrc file

so back up if upgrading from a previous version
( I did not :shock: )

DC

1.7.11 overwrites existing .conkyrc

It happened to me, too .... :roll:

Can one of the administrators or the OP be troubled to add a warning about this to the OP, please?

update_interval

Posted: Wed 03 Mar 2010, 03:42
by UberNoob
Out of curiosity:

Is there a general guideline as to how system resource consumption changes in proportion to changes in update_interval? For example would changing the update_interval from 1.0 to 4.0 see a reduction in conky resource consumption of A: 75% B: 50% C: that depends... or D: why do you care?

Conky 1.7.1.1 the only one running in Puppy precise 5.4.3 (2014)
Newer failed :lol:

hi pelo,

you might be intrested in this conky 1.8.1.pet for precise ... includes conky switcher http://content.wuala.com/contents/666ph ... -1.8.1.pet

This one in the Saluki repository works fine on my Puppy Precise 5.7.1. as well.

Conky, i tried newer versions

Posted: Sat 10 May 2014, 05:48

Conky, i tried newer versions, but i failed cause missing dependencies, i don't remember which ones, right now.
I come back... because i am with super Lucid. However, i take a glance in PPM lucid, as i am with it
Pet 1.8.1 downloaded, A missing dependance to add. (for supersulu)

conky 1.8.0 Lucid enough and perfect for Lucid 528 last issue (super Lupu)

Posted: Sat 10 May 2014, 06:58
by aragon
hi pelo,

from memory i would say that the missing dependencies could be

- imlib2
- lua

imlib2 is used to display pictures in conky, lua to use advanced output options like these http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=72815

both 'should' be available in ppm (for newer puppy-versions).

aragon

both imlib and lua

Posted: Sat 10 May 2014, 17:36
by Pelo
both imlib and lua. regarding yr explanations, i don't need these libs. The appli should start without.
The versions 1.7 and 1.8.0 are enough for me. In fact, i have too low consumption of ram and CPU to care with that. It was to see. And the conky makes my desktop as a high technical tool. 'c'est de la frime' je regarde Google translation.
'it is a sham' would be the translation :P

Now CPU is 4%. The graphical scale makes it hardly (visible).

Ah i will perhaps change my opinion ; nice on lucid 5.28 ...
