Yeah no problem I'll give it a go tonight and I'll let you know the results after a few hours worth of testing around the house.
 
My wifi path seems to be a little different, but I'm missing 'wireless/link' from the end of the folder line, any ideas?

What i did was to navigate to the folder in "/sys/class/net/wlan0 (in my case)/wireless" there is a file called link


then i open a terminal window from there and copied the path displayed in terminal, its much longer than the one you navigated to in file manager. it displayed as folows for me:


/sys/devices/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.2/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:0001/mmc2:0001:1/net/wlan0/wireless/link


add the path to the code with the link file. in my case:


${execbar cat /sys/devices/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.2/mmc_host/mmc2/mmc2:0001/mmc2:0001:1/net/wlan0/wireless/link}
 
Oddly, no matter how I navigate there's no Wireless folder, I can't find a link file anywhere, I'll keep checking through though.
 
The wlan0 folder disappears when it's inactive, but otherwise the folders in wlan0 are device (shortcut), phy80211 (shortcut), subsystem (shortcut) and Statistics. I'm not having any luck finding the Link file anywhere.


What firmware you using out of interest?
 
Never used conkey before- used some similar programs.


Retrodude i'm using your config file and it looks great; however it does not let my


pnd's/sd cards show up on the desktop whenever its running.


Any thoughts?

Yes.. the codes for the SD cards is as folows:


${offset 580}${color grey}SD-1:$color ${fs_used_perc /media/mmcblk0p1}% ${execbar df -h | grep "/media/mmcblk0p1" | awk '{ printf "%s", $5 }' }


${offset 580}${color grey}SD-2:$color ${fs_used_perc /media/mmcblk1p1}% ${execbar df -h | grep "/media/mmcblk1p1" | awk '{ printf "%s", $5 }' }


If you look at this part of the code: ${fs_used_perc /media/mmcblk0p1}% you need to change the name of the CD card to whatever your CD card is named, like this ${fs_used_perc /media/YOURSDCARDNAME}%
 
I've gotten my sd card to show up in the conky menu


But my actual desktop icons like in "pandora -> desktop -> Firefox, psxrearmed


Those do not show up unless I highlight them/select them. Then they disappear when de-selected/highlighted

EDIT EDIT: added "own_window_transparent yes" no luck in getting the desktop icons to show up - does let my background show through now tho
