How to get Specific Conky scripts to work?

[Koentje]

If you go into gpuinfo.lua and go to the last block, "bar for GPU Load". What does the line wiith arg= say?
Should be: arg="cat /home/tinman1325/.conky/gpuinfo/tempfiles/gpuinfo.tmp | head -n17 | tail -n1",

Lets fix things first before we do cosmetics..
When you watched the values.. did the 3th last one also change value?
If you go into gpuinfo.sh at the bottom you can see which value is what. I numberd them, shown after each value.
$gpuload is number 17.

Yeah the conky is showing all of the values fluctuate. The numbers go up and down and the bars also go up and down. Except GPU load, the numbers go up and down but the bar graph doesn't display anything at all

Yes, I see " echo "$gpuload" >> "$infofile" # 17" in the gpuinfo.sh

It says " arg="cat /home/.conky/gpuinfo/tempfiles/gpuinfo.tmp | head -n17 | tail -n1","

I will change it to what you have

For the colors.. i don't understand why your colors are the other way around??
They should start blue and get more to orange if the value goes up... and the transition should go smooth.
But on your system it starts orange and go to blue and is not smooth...?

Do you have screenrecorder installed by any means? So you could make a short recording of how they behave?

This one? No I don't, but I can. Am I able to upload videos here?

The forum is slow today!
But yes that one should do fine.

On my system this is how the bars should look like when full

btw to keep the video small, don't capture the whole screen but select a part of the screen.. only the conky window.
You can send it to remon at cobrasoft dot nl (i guess you figure that one out )

That was my email adress, but this way it also works. I see that the fan bar does not go to zero! The value does, but not the bar.. still something wrong i gues?
But your bars do behave on a strange way! I wonder if it is your mint version that you're on?

I have changed a few values for the colors. Go into the gpuinfo.lua script and find these three lines in every block:

Code: Select all

  fg_colour={0x00bbff,1},
  bg_colour={0x227766,0.5},
  alarm_colour={0xff8700,1},

And replace them with these four!

Code: Select all

  fg_colour={0x33bb00,1},
  bg_colour={0x666666,0.6},
  alarm=90,
  alarm_colour={0xff7700,1},
[code]

And do make a copy first!

If all goes well it should look like this i hope..

I noticed things got a little strange ever since I updated the kernel, the Software Manager definitely changed

Realy weird and i can't explain why your bars behave that way?

You can try and turn smooth= to false
