Conky and gcal problem

Hi all
I have a conky sidebar with gcal shown in the bottom like this:
http://picasaweb.google.com/nielsrasmus … 9567347298
The problem is that gcal isn't aligned properly
I've tried with cal also with the same problem, and in urxvt both cal and gcal is shown the way it should too!
What have to be done to show gcal aligned as intended ??
This is my .conkyrc:

Well,I have 3 scripts for dwm,~/.bin/dwm-start ; ~/.bin/dwm-status and ~/.xinitrc.
This is my dwm-start:
#!/bin/sh
while true;do
"$HOME/.bin/dwm-status" &
sleep 1s ;
done &
dzconky &
trayer --widthtype request --edge bottom --align right --height 20 --transparent true &
pidgin &
parcellite &
wicd-client &
while true ; do
dwm
done
And this is my .xinitrc:
#!/bin/sh
export DE=xfce
xrdb ~/.Xdefaults &
wmname LG3D
xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/artwiz-fonts/
xset fp rehash
unclutter -idle 5 &
#fc-cache -vf &

# xrdb ~/.Xresources &
# xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/local &
# xset fp rehash &
# sudo dropboxd start &
exec ck-launch-session $HOME/.bin/dwm-start
Here is how it looks

  • Conky and frequency scaling

    Hello.
    I have couple of computers with conky and cpufreq working. All fine there. It was so also on my notebook, which had Ubuntu 9.04 installed. I reinstalled to 9.10 and since then my conky reports full frequency.
    There was a lot of other issues, so I decided to finally remove Ubuntu and take the time to install Arch. Things are much better with Arch on this notebook, but I did not get rid of the frequency scaling problem. It is Thinkpad X31 btw.
    According to powertop and cpufreq-info, the frequency scaling is working. Conky reports 1400Mhz all the time.
    Here is my cpufreq-info:

    As you can see I even put that part of script, which takes values from cpufreq-info into conky, but it still does show wrong values.
    When I manually set frequency to 600Mhz, it shows up in conky.
    With Ubuntu 9.04 this was working fine, so I wonder what has recently changed that could have resulted in this behaviour.

    Archiee wrote:[...]
    - Frequency step size is configurable (default to 100MHz/step) (cpufreq doesn't support this)
    If I'm not mistaken it's the CPU that tells the utility what frequencies it can switch to; not the other way around. Remember each frequency has a voltage tied to it. Also, he's not asking about a way to manage his cpuf requency management, just about a glitch in actualy frequency reporting.
    @ topic starter: why are you grepping cpufreq-info if you can have conky just read it out for you? It's a hardcoded conky feature...
    From their documentation:
    freq    (n)    Returns CPU #n's frequency in MHz. CPUs are counted from 1. If omitted, the parameter defaults to 1

  • [SOLVED] linux-grsec on macbook pro 9,2 - battery and network problems

    I have a macbook pro 9,2 on which I am dual booting OS X and arch. I am using xfce as my DE on the arch installation. Since installing and switching over to linux-grsec, my system seems unable to detect the presence of a battery (specifically my arch system - OS X still detects my battery just fine). The xfce battery monitor panel icon sits at 50% and does not change regardless of whether AC power is connected or not. Xfce power manager can detect whether or not the computer is receiving AC power, but does not show the existence of a battery. Running
    # acpi -b
    yields an empty output, as does running
    # dmesg | grep -i battery
    These methods all properly detected my battery prior to the installation of linux-grsec. I was unable to find any similar problems via google or the arch forums, and find myself at a loss for where to look to learn what I need to do to resolve this. I would very much like to avoid returning to the default kernel, if possible. I appreciate any assistance that you can offer, though if given a choice I would prefer the means to figure out the answer over the answer itself.

    Update:
    Regarding the battery: I have determined that the update I performed had nothing to do with the detection of my battery. Arch detects my battery when AC power is connected during bootup (and continues to detect it even if I remove AC power after bootup), and does not detect my battery if AC power is not connected during bootup (and continues to not detect it even if AC power is connected after bootup). I did not notice before because by coincidence I started using my macbook without the power cord attached at the same time that I installed linux-grsec. Now that the problem is more clear and specific, I am migrating it to its own post found here.
    Regarding bandwidth usage: Conky and Network Manager failing to display bandwidth usage actually occured immediately after switching to linux-grsec, I just did not notice this failure at first. The problem ended up being quite simple. Unbeknownst to me, linux-grsec changed my wireless interface name from wlp2s0 to wlp2s0b1. Network Manager and Conky were therefore failing to display bandwidth usage because they were both using wlp2s0 instead of wlp2s0b1. Correcting the interface name in .conkyrc and the network applet settings fixed the problem.

  • Xcompmgr messing with openbox windows (conky and kde apps only)

    here's the involved packages:
    openbox 3.4.7.2-1
    nvidia 177.82-1
    xorg-server 1.5.3-3
    xcompmgr 1.1.4-1
    kdelibs3 3.5.10-2
    conky 1.6.1-2
    now the issue is primarily with xcompmgr.  when it's running (default options or the whole -cCfF... stuff doesn't make a difference).  i have the following:
    whenever a kde apps window opens.  (i.e. i start amarok or k3b; k3b opens new windows during burn start/stop process) my conky will disappear only to flicker and reappear a few seconds later. (this only happens with kde apps)
    when i'm tweaking my conky i will often `pkill conky; sleep 3; conky` to see my changes.  when i kill conky, ALL of my active windows on the current desktop disappear and only reappear if a) they are redrawn because of an update to their contents on their own accord, or b) (kinda the same thing) i grab a window and drag it all over the screen resetting whatever i pass over to it's correct visual state.  (this only happens when killing conky)
    this is annoying me, i love the shadows/fading from xcompmgr but this flickering makes my whole experience feel unstable and i have to turn it off after a few minutes.  turn off xcompmgr and it's rock solid just as before... snappier too i think.
    this behavior started immediately after the recent xorg update (i saved that for last because i know were all sick of _that_).  i changed nothing, but for the -Syu when this happened.
    anyways, your thoughts and help is much appreciated.

    so i'm resurrecting this thread because i hoped, and  prayed, that xorg 1.6 in testing would fix this problem.  i've been working my ass off to keep my system back in xorg 1.4.  my desktop just looks so oldfashioned w/o shadows and transparency. 
    ok so to re-outline, i'm running:
    pacman -Q stuff
    xorg-server 1.6.0-1
    nvidia 180.29-3
    openbox 3.4.7.2-1
    xcompmgr 1.1.4-1
    with this gpu:
    hwd -s | grep video
    Video : GeForce 7150 / nForce 630i server: XFree86 (vesa)
    i created a minimal xorg.conf via nvidia-xconfig an added a few suggested options (although they _really_ don't seem to affect this bug...):
    cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    # nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig
    # nvidia-xconfig: version 1.0 (buildmeister@builder62) Thu Feb 5 00:08:50 PST 2009

    Identifier "Monitor0"

    ModelName "Unknown"
    HorizSync 28.0 - 33.0
    VertRefresh 43.0 - 72.0
    Option "DPMS"
    EndSection
    Section "Device"
    Identifier "Device0"
    Driver "nvidia"
    VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
    Option "NoLogo" "True"
    Option "RenderAccel" "True"

    Device "Device0"
    Monitor "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth 24
    SubSection "Display"
    Depth 24
    EndSubSection
    EndSection
    now, here's what happens:
    i startx, .xinitrc or autostart.sh bring up xcompmgr, bmpanel, and conky
    if i open amarok or k3b, conky and bmpanel (both using transparency) vanish while the splash screen(s) show.
    when i burn something with k3b (and new windows appear) i see similar behavior
    sometimes it's just for a sec and then it's back, sometimes conky comes back with part of itself missing
    also, if you execute `pkill conky` from an xterm, all windows are 'destroyed' until you [blindly] grab that xterm window and move it about your desktop 'revealing' the desktops contents.  please see this screenshot for this in action.
    killing xcompmgr fixes all this... but it's so ugly.  the problems go away if i downgrade to xorg-server 1.4 (and also adjust any related/dependant packages to match).
    please please, tell me i'm not alone!  a fix would be nice too .
    thanks in advance... again

  • Conky and high CPU usage

    I originally posted this in the Newbie Corner, as I consider myself a newbie, but got no answers there and I think my issue is pretty kernel-HW-related, excuse me for re-posting.
    I was editing an old peaceful Conky and it somewhen started making high use of the CPU (around 30-40% avg.). As I couldn't figure out where the problem was, took out every configuration line in the conky file and ended up with the few following lines, which are by themselves triggering the same high CPU usage. I don't have much experience with Conky, could anyone explain me if this behaviour would be expected from this simple code or is there something else?
    Thank you.

    '''(in English)'''

    Hi Danny,
    Per my understanding that you can't get the expect result by using the expression "=Count(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4) " to count the the TICKET_STATUS which value is 4, the result will returns the count of all the TICKET_STATUS values(206)
    but not 180, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, the issue caused by you are using the count() function in the incorrect way, please modify the expression as below and have a test:
    =COUNT(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4 ,1,Nothing))
    or
    =SUM(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS=4,1,0))
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • BOSD, Battery issues and Heating problem after iOS 8 upgrade

    i have upgraded my iPad mini to iOS 8. Ever since I upgraded to iOS 8 am facing blue screen issues and heating problem as well. This is really frustrating even the patch iOS 8.0.2 dint solve the problem. Are you guys listening our complaints. When will you fixing it.

    The same thing happened to me on my 2012 Subaru Outback.  I'm not sure this will help you since you have a Honda, but I'm posting this just in case.
    I paired the audio on my car with my iPhone 6.  However, when I turned the car off and back on again, the iPhone would not pair automatically.  I had to manually connect the iPhone with the car.  Turns out there are two separate bluetooth pairings on my car: one for phone which allows up to 5 devices and one for audio which allows only one device.  So I did the second bluetooth pairing for the phone (had already done the audio), and that fixed it.  YMMV

              System.out.println("You hit" +done);
    }Here is the main code that writes what the objects do:
    class fight {
         public static void main(String[] args) {
              self instance1 = new self();
              rockCrab instance2 = new rockCrab();
              instance2.health = instance2.health - instance1.done;
              System.out.println("You hit: " +instance1.done);
              System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance2.health);
              instance1.health = instance1.health - instance2.done;
              System.out.println("RockCrab hit: " +instance2.done);
              System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance1.health);
              instance2.health = instance2.health - instance1.done;
              System.out.println("You hit: " +instance1.done);
              System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance2.health);
              instance1.health = instance1.health - instance2.done;
              System.out.println("RockCrab hit: " +instance2.done);
              System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance1.health);
              instance2.health = instance2.health - instance1.done;
              System.out.println("You hit: " +instance1.done);
              System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance2.health);
              instance1.health = instance1.health - instance2.done;
              System.out.println("RockCrab hit: " +instance2.done);
              System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance1.health);
              instance2.health = instance2.health - instance1.done;
              System.out.println("You hit: " +instance1.done);
              System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance2.health);
              instance1.health = instance1.health - instance2.done;
              System.out.println("RockCrab hit: " +instance2.done);
              System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance1.health);
    }when the code is run it says something like this:
    you hit 1
    RockCrabs health is 9
    RockCrab hit 7
    your health is 38
    you hit 1
    RockCrabs health is 8
    RockCrab hit 7
    your health is 31
    you hit 1
    RockCrabs health is 7
    RockCrab hit 7
    your health is 24
    you hit 1
    RockCrabs health is 6
    RockCrab hit 7
    your health is 17
    my point is whatever some one hits it always repeats that
    my expected output would have to be something like
    you hit 1
    RockCrabs health is 9
    RockCrab hit 9
    your health is 37
    you hit 3
    RockCrabs health is 6
    RockCrab hit 4
    your health is 33
    you hit 2
    RockCrabs health is 4
    RockCrab hit 7
    your health is 26
    you hit 3
    RockCrabs health is 1
    RockCrab hit 6
    your health is 20

    [_Crosspost_|http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5390217] I'm locking.

  • Remote and IR Problem

    A rather odd and annoying problem has recently been occuring on my MBP. A couple days ago my remote (after working without fail for over a year now) suddenly stopped working. Yesterday night and this morning it started working again but after a while it stopped again. I've read dozens of support articles which haven't really helped because there seems to be another problem.
    Most articles have stated that there is an option to disable the IR receiver in the "security" window under system preferences. When the IR and remote are not working this option disappears but when they are working the option is present. I have also tried replacing the battery without any result.
    I am now thinking that it might have something to do with heat buildup because it is mainly occuring after the laptop has been on for about a half hour, so I am going to try to borrow someone's fan.
    If anyone has any suggestions to solve this I would appreciate it if you could help. Thanks!

    check out this thread. Seems to be the same problem.

  • LG Ally text message and gps problems

    hello. ive been with verizon for about 10 years maybe. ive been overall happy with the service and customer service. but the prices should be alot lower.lol. i started out with the motorolas then switched to the lg phones. only problem with the motorola was the speakers. not loud enough. could never hear the phone ring. the lgs usually suffer from the same problem.
    i had a few phone problems but nothing like this lg ally. im on my second one and about to be my 3rd one in about 3 months. 1st phone i had every problem under the sun. this phone i am suffering from text message problems and gps problems. i suffer from what everyone else has problems with. the messages wont send. they will eventually lock up. it will show the envelope with the red explanation point ( i think thats the graphic). then usually everytime when i sent a text the texts will close. it will send then bounce back and show up as a draft and i have to resend it and wait for it to go thru. finally the last problem with the texts. when i send a text a phone number from my contacts shows up and freezes on the screen. its in white text with a black background. its the same number every time. it stays on the screen until i restart or pull my battery out.
    gps. when i open up google gps that comes with the phone i make sure the gps is on... when the directions are found and the map pops up 9 out of 10 times it just keeps saying searching for gps. the turn by turn never is found. the 1 time it does it takes a good 10 minutes to be found. atleast on my first one ally the gps did work 8 out of 10 times. it just took a good 5-10 minutes for gps to be found and show turn by turn.
    anyone else have these problems? where you able to fix them or did you need to get a new phone? the 2.1 update was supposed to fix problems. i think they just made it worse. the ally is supposed to have 2.2 froyo. where is it. is it ever going to get it. i got this phone because i like the lgs and the keyboard. also the sales representative on the phone was giving the lg ally rave reviews. why couldnt he say dont buy this go with a motorola droid. this phone is the biggest junk ever made

    I do apologize you are having trouble with your device I looked in our information system on the LG Ally in reguards to issues you are having it states if you have the Free Droid Security anti virus protection application down loaded it will cause the phone to lock up or freeze. Check and make sure you do not have the application on your device. Check you GPS settings and make sure correct. Go to Settings; Location & Security; make sure GPS is on wireless network. If this does not fix issue you can try doing a Master Reset on your device. Make sure your contacts are saved in your G-mail account or through Back Up Assistance.
    Master Reset/Soft Reset:
    Factory Reset option 1
    From the main screen, touch menu tab
    Touch Settings
    Touch Privacy
    Touch Factory Data reset
    Touch Reset Phone
    Warning: This will erase all data from your phone, including:
    Your Google account
    System and application data and settings
    Downloaded Applications
    It will not erase: Current System software and bundled applications; SD Card files, such as music or Photos
    Factory Reset option 2  - Warning this will reset device back to original factory settings.
    Turn off the phone
    Press and hold "home" + "end" + "volume up or down" keys together for a few seconds when the device is power off
    Once device displays boot information, release keys.
    Soft Reset
    Press the Power key.
    Touch Power off.
    Touch OK.
    Press the Power key to power on the device.
    or
    Remove battery cover, remove battery and reinstall.Also there is a new update for LG Ally it will be the Froyo 2.2 but there is not release date available at this time it will post on your device when available. Hope this Helps. Leslie

  • How do I fix my ipod classic that says very low batter after I have charged it and the problem persists?

    I have an Ipod video 30g that says Please wait very low battery. I charged it for about a day and the problem persists. I've tried using some solutions on the internet and none of them worked including: holding the menu and select, holding select and play to put it in disk mode with no avail. Is there anyone who can help me!!!

    Have you read this post written by another forum member?
    The Sad iPod icon.
    However, as your iPod was purchased on Boxing Day, why not get it serviced under the warranty?
    You can arrange online service here.
    Service request.
    Or if an Apple store is near you, take it there and have them check your iPod.
    You can make an appointment by using this link.

    It's so annoying!! I have created a new Apple ID but after I click verify it just goes back to the previous page!!! It''s really frustrating I have tried for more than 4H, and the problem is not about the apple ID. I can download apps with the apple ID, which means IMessage is the problem! I restarted my iPad, I logged in and out of the apple ID in the store, AND YET IT STILL WON'T WORK, PLEASE HELP!

    Hi Vmanfromusa!
    It sounds like you are having an issue with activating your iMessage app on your iPad. An article outlining some troubleshooting steps for this issue can be found here:

  • [solved] Issue with conky and Kde 4

    I have a small issue with conky and KDE 4.2. I start conky with a script which I stored under ~/.kde/Autostart. The script is simple and looks like this..
    conky -c ~/.conkyrc_kde4
    This works fine. But when I restart the first KDE and check with ps, I have 2 instances of conky running. The instances keep on growing with the number of restarts.
    I think kde tries to restart all the apps which were running when the session was terminated. Is there a way to change this behavior in general or all the programs or for only a specific program like conky ?

    I did
    Systemsettings > Advanced > Session Manager > Start with an empty session
    and put everything you want in Autostart
