Please post the contents of your custom conkyrc. If you can, please put it in the pastebin (http://linuxbbq.org/zerobin/) and post the link here.

actaully, I am getting the same error from the default .conkyrc as well

Thnx

I just installed Elitist64, and I can't reproduce this error with the default conkyrc. Did you install or update anything after you installed? What is this "Conkyllia"? Are you getting those errors when you run conky in a terminal, or when you run Conkyllia?

Please try this simple conkyrc and see if you get the same errors. Please run conky from the command line.

yes .. ran update & got conky with same error

then ran dist-upgrade & the same error again ..

maybe re-install the OS is the solution ..

[pidsley]

You can reinstall if you want, but you should not need to. Did you try the simple conkyrc I posted? And you are getting those errors from conky, when you run it like this:

Code: Select all

conky -c conkyrc-test

not errors from Conkyllia?

If you do decide to reinstall, try conky without installing anything else immediately after the reinstall.

[delphys]

when I run conky -c conkyrc-test .. i get the same erros as above

Now I am getting these errors from conkyllia:

Code: Select all

Those are gtk warnings from Conkyllia. I can't help you with those, but they should not make a lot of difference. Did conky work when you first booted your new Elitist install, before you installed Conkyllia? Can you uninstall it?

When you ran conky -c conkyrc-test, did you first copy the simple conkyrc I posted to conkyrc-test?

[delphys]

Yes the initial conky worked

and yes I re-instated the default conkyrc before I rant the test you suggested ..

I must have borked something along the way ..Think I will re-install ..Thank you for your help..

[pidsley]

Save your new conky, and try it before you install Conkyllia.

The zenity errors, by the way, can be ignored. It would be a bliss if they'd use yad, instead. Be sure to empty your xsession-error logfile every now and then, it might grow.
