Package: conky
Version: 1.6.0-2
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
I believe I mistakenly closed the bug
#487184 conky: out_to_console still draws on root
It looks like out_to_console continues to draw on the root window.
I imagine that the original submitter wanted _only_ the text mode
output of conky.
This has at least two solutions.
1. One can change the lines 8328-30 in src/conky.c
CONF("out_to_console") {
if(string_to_bool(value)) output_methods |= TO_STDOUT;
}
to read
CONF("out_to_console") {
if(string_to_bool(value)) output_methods = TO_STDOUT;
}
this will ensure that "out_to_console" _only_ writes to stdout.
However, conky will still demand an X server it can connect to
and make queries to. Which seems like a waste in this case.
2. One can create a new conky package which disables X support
entirely (conky-nox) for such users.
Perhaps the latter is a better solution. The question is whether
people really want it. (All those xmonad, awesome, dwm users who
use conky please respond!).
Regards,
Kapil.
