It's not included in 10.2, and it wasn't in 10.1 if I remember correctly. But it's not too complicated to setup. Step1: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=143975 and download Step2: unpack the file with the app of choice (or tar -xzf <filename>) Step3: ./configure make make install (as root) Step4: Configure Conky-config: it's $HOME/.conkyrc (examples are provided) Step5: Start Conky along with X somewhere with the -d option (conky -d) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
