I've installed conky, and my desktop became beautiful.
I've customized conky, and conky became useful.
the problem is, while the desktop became beautiful, conky remains rather ugly
I wanted to make a background "shade", similar to that of semitransparent console windows, using the lua script that makes use of cairo:
http://conky.linux-hardcore.com/?page_id=3002
The trouble is, even though the entire conky/lua/cairo ports have been rebuilt, the conky cannot seem to execute script:
So my head went boom.
Is there anyway to make it work? conky is compiled with lua and cairo enabled via make config. do those functions still not fully functional? is there something i could do to work around it?
