Thanks @pangolin , some conky wont show , some just okay , I wonder why , maybe something wrong with the conkyrc ,
Now , How do I add it to autostart ?
Just go ahead and throw the command you want in at .config/openbox/autostart

What is the file name?
If the extension is not .conky or .conkyrc then it wont pick it up

Ahh I see, my mistake
If you know a little about conky, porting older configs isn’t too hard
only minor rewriting is neccesary as most syntax still works fine
Appreciate you updating the title anyway

@Dobbie03 Sorry if I place this post on wrong category , should it be Technical than artwork ? could you move this post to appropriate category ? thanks anyway
@nate yeah nate , I find also convert.lua feature in 1.10 , that conversion works fine . Old config just fine
Awesome stuff, I didnt even know there was an auto converter, nice find
Don’t worry too much, I just moved it to Basic Help & Support
@nate
/usr/share/doc/conky-1.10.7_pre/convert.lua
thanks for moving this post category nate , appreciate it
