klaatu-conky-conf
My Conky config. It's kind of based on severindupouy's config, so thank you for that one.
The Lua script is supremely ugly with those hard-coded position values. Maybe it can be done better, but this was all the Lua I could put up with for now.
Also, I don't know why the ${top mem N} all say inf. Maybe I'll dig into that some day. But then again, maybe not.
Usage
You need Conky with Cairo support. I guess that's what you get when installing conky-all on Debian. Or if you compile it yourself, you have to set BUILD_LUA_CAIRO=ON for cmake. Unfortunately, I don't remember exactly how I did this. :D
You also need Font Awesome for desktop.
My default settings will probably not work for you. You have to find out your network interface names and hwmon integers for yourself and change conky.conf accordingly. http://conky.sourceforge.net/variables.html is a great help.
The Backup section is based on a highly sofisticated hack where I make my backup program (Duplicati) run a variant of this script after every backup:
echo `date +'%F %T'`: $DUPLICATI__PARSED_RESULT > /var/log/duplicati-[backup name].logAll that said and done -- place conky.* in ~/.config/conky/ and you're ready to roll.
Startup script
In bin/ is a script I run at startup in Ubuntu. It uses the -m parameter to display Conky on both my screens. This parameter is not available in Conky v1.10.8, which is the version currently (Oct 2020) available in Ubuntu's repository, hence the need for compiling it myself. It also uses -p 1 when starting the first instance, making Conky pause for one second before doing anything, which turned out to be the solution for the fonts getting the wrong sizes on startup.
