Same problem here. I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 and Conky 1.8.1. I've got 3
hwmon entries in '/sys/class/hwmon': 0, 1, 2 for k10temp, it8720 and
nouveau, respectively. After several boots 'hwmon0' and 'hwmon1' swap
their places and ${hwmon 1 fan 1} and ${hwmon 1 temp 2} (for CPU fan and
temperature, respectively) cannot find their data anymore and Conky
crashes. Possibly this happens because some modules change their load
order. While I haven't found how this can be influenced, this issue can
be resolved by changing sensor. Conky has got 'i2c' and 'platform'
variables for the monitoring purposes in addition to 'hwmon'. Platform
devices are also symlinks, but they have more distinctive names. I
changed my variables to ${platform it87.552 fan 1} and ${platform
it87.552 temp 2} and this fixed the issue.
