Other conky is spanning across all 3 of my monitors. I'd prefer to chose the monitor it shows on and sticks to one.

So research suggest xinerama is the thing. i added the suggested line in my conky but it made no functional difference. Anyone out there with some experience using conky on a 3 monitor setup would be appreciated. also, my conky

Code:
-- Conky, a system monitor https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky
--
-- This configuration file is Lua code. You can write code in here, and it will
-- execute when Conky loads. You can use it to generate your own advanced
-- configurations.
--
-- Try this (remove the `--`):
--
--   print("Loading Conky config")
--
-- For more on Lua, see:
-- https://www.lua.org/pil/contents.html
--
-- Conky Lua API: https://conky.cc/lua

-- Configuration settings: https://conky.cc/config_settings
conky.config = {
    xinerama_head = 1,
    alignment = 'bottom',

    double_buffer = true,

    draw_outline = false,

    stippled_borders = 0,
    update_interval = 1.0,
    uppercase = false,

}

conky.text = [[
${font OpenDyslexic:size=14}${offset 2300}${exec awk '{print $2" "$3}'} Free BSD | Kernel: ${kernel} | Ram: ${mem}/${memmax} | Root: ${fs_used /}/${fs_size /} Swap: $swap/$swapmax  | Cpu: ${cpu cpu0}%
]]
[/conky]

and a picture of what it looks like.  if you look on the left most screen you can see the outline of the conky's far left limits and the similar outline on the far right monitor/tv.
