Re: can't see network in conky
I don't think ra0 is your wireless device. Run this command in a terminal:
sudo ifconfig
look to see what your wireless device is - it is probably "wlan0". Then edit the ~/.conkyrc file from eth0 to wlan0 (or whatever) on the appropriate lines.

Re: can't see network in conky
You are right - it is ra0. So that should work in your conkyrc - there is a recent thread of conky where I have posted my conkyrc with up/download graphs - it should work for you by just changing eth0 to ra0...
Re: can't see network in conky
with my conkyrc it didn't! i copyd yours(if you don't mind) en then it works!there is a recent thread of conky where I have posted my conkyrc with up/download graphs - it should work for you by just changing eth0 to ra0...
