[gentoo-user] conky crashes with JSON output.
Hello, everyone. I'm experiencing some problems with conky that seems to
be Gentoo-specific. All of my friends running other distributions are
able to run my configuration file just fine. Here's the output from
conky:

This happens when I kill my network and conky is running. The
configuration for my network is as follows:
{ "full_text" : "${if_up wlp9s0}Wifi:${else}${if_up

{ "full_text" : "${if_up wlp9s0}${wireless_essid wlp9s0}${else}${if_up

Here is the output of conky -v:

Any ideas?

I don't use GNOME, so that does take part of the equation away. The problem was solved by changing permissions to /dev/snd and it's containing files. After chmodding /dev/snd/* to 666, I was able to play sounds as a normal user. In the Gentoo guide, it mentions this, and it also mentions taking your user out of the audio group if you're currently in it. Please see http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/PulseAudio#Root_can_play_sound.2C_other_users_cannot for more detailed information. Very Respectfully, Kevin Thompson
