Sorry for all the posts, but I'm getting truncated in replies: so here's the final error:

conky -c .conky/conkyrc_orange

conky: Assuming it's in old syntax and attempting conversion.

Wanting to try this but I'm getting errors. What version of Conky are you using if you don't mind?

I'm trying this on Conky 1.10.8 in Ubuntu 20.04.

I'm getting:

conky -c .conky/conky_orange/conkyrc_orange
conky: Syntax error (.conky/conky_orange/conkyrc_orange:2: unexpected symbol near '#') while reading config file.
conky: Assuming it's in old syntax and attempting conversion.

conky: Invalid value 'undecorate' for setting 'own_window_hints'. Valid values are: 'undecorated', 'below', 'above', 'sticky', 'skip_taskbar', 'skip_pager'.
conky: desktop window (600010) is subwindow of root window (4eb)

X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request: 1 (X_CreateWindow)
Serial number of failed request: 86
Current serial number in output stream: 90

I tried looking into it myself as I have worked a lot with Conky for years, but I can't really tell what the issue is.

I guess you have it set to load straight from the .conky when I would assume a themed version would be in it's own folder, but even after I moved everything to .conky/ I still get:

conky -c .conky/conkyrc_orange
conky: Syntax error (.conky/conkyrc_orange:2: unexpected symbol near '

This doesn't seem to be working in Linux Mint 12 running Cinnamon.
Any ideas why and how to fix it?
Thanks.

When I first open conky it takes up only 1.7MB. I left my computer running the whole night and when I got back it showed that it conky was using 150+MB :-/

I'll post a new version to prevent memory leaks soon :)

lunatico

Does that mean my conky (which I based off yours) will also have a mem leak? :(

hardball

yes,
I added 2 lines at the end of the function conky_main

That's great! You do the hard work and I re-use it... I think I owe you a beer! ;)

Are you uploading a modified version?
