Post your conkyrc files with screenshots here
Posted: Sat 12 Apr 2008, 00:34
Ubuntu has a posting like this but a lot of their files don't work in Puppy, so I was hoping some of you out there running conky in Puppy (3.01 if it matters) would help a noob trying to learn to get started.
Saw some interesting add-ons like gmail and a weather forecaster in ubuntu conky but they needed additional packages and it was unclear if they would work in Puppy. Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
Here's one that was called pizza conky if I remember right, that I want to work on... Thanks in advance...
