Hi,

Recompiled and it works beautifully. I've compiled it with wlan support and mpd support so you can view your currently playing track on desktop (if you use mpd of course)




Install with dpkg.

Thanks to mrlanrat, we have a mirror:

(Try the sendspace link first please )

Oh yh, dis isn't an applet, run conky in xterm or make an init script.

You will also have to write your own config too.

Using this with mpd pwns:

Thanks. I've been hoping somebody would port Conky to the N800.

I had to install it in red pill mode and run it in a terminal session. It opens in its own window, not on the desktop like in your screenshots. The networking speeds show zero all the time.

1) How do I get it to open on the desktop?
2) Where is the conkyrc script located? (or should I make my own and put it in ~/.conkyrc)

1) No idea. I just went and modified a config file I found on the internet which I use on my desktop here :
http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?s...dpost&p=314857

I'd upload my config but my microb likes to crash when manipulating large texts. Plus the fact I'm one of the few who has jott's fortune build installed and uses mpd

2. Just place it in ~/.conkyrc.

For the network thing, replace eth0 with wlan0

@tso

I'm not holding a glock to peoples head and forcing them to install it. Actually, come think of it why did I reply to such a useless post?
Maybe I'll listen when I find at least one of your posts useful.

@ukki (if you ever read or want this)

Do you want a build with xmms2 support?

Thank you, with Conki and ICEWM, we are realy one step closer to DamnSmallLinux or PuppyLinux on the n8x0.

Quick question: does it drag around if you drag on it?

If not, could it be useful for hiding desktop applets under? (So they don't get drug around.)

Obviously for information-only ones, not interaction, and I guess you could just display the information here... Yeah, dumb idea.

I can mirror anything!

Here ya go!
Conky 1.5.1-1

You may need to right click and click save as, my server tends to want to open it as a text file.

(if anyone knows how to fix this please tell me)
