I was looking over some of the search results for the blog at the moment and a lot of people are looking for conky. So my current setup looks like this.

Current Conky Setup

I’m currently running two conkys on my main machine, one is for the machine I’m using and the other is for another machine in my home that I keep on 24/7. I did update it this morning when I got up so you now all know it takes me ~ 4 minutes to get from my bed to my computer in the morning. There isn’t anything special here, the servers online thing is just little script that pings and parses. You can get some useful conky scripts on the Ubuntu Forums (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=3222199&postcount=523).

Read more for the code!

Thanks

Darius
