Conky 1.10.2 not work with VirtualBox #282

Closed holmeslinux closed 6 years ago

holmeslinux commented 8 years ago

hi all, good morning! after upgrading to Conky 1.10.2 it does not work anymore with the VirtualBox. with 1.10.1 version worked perfectly with VirtualBox. my Conky is: https://github.com/holmeslinux/Manjaro-JWM/blob/master/jwm-overlay/etc/skel/.conkyrc.

what can it be?

vlw fwi, Holmes :)

Well - I have tested conky using virtualbox - ubuntu 15.10 and conky 1.10.2 - vincent PPA - aaaannnnnd - it works :)

I have noted the use of $color - while you have only defined color2 and a default_color.

So what messages do you get in the terminal window. ???

thanks @plikhari kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk here does not work in vbox using Manjaro JWM 16.06.1. but, it works in live and installed on a real machine. the problem is in the vbox. the previous version worked. open a topic in Manjaro Forum to discuss this issue, see in

https://forum.manjaro.org/t/troubleshooting-conky-for-jwm-edition/3713

i will review the code and remove the unnecessary (for example $color).

vlw fwi, Holmes :)
