Hello everyone ......

i wonder if someone an help me with this please

i opened conky to find that my processor usage goes

if u have flashlight-extra .... delete it
also delete some remains manually . these are the files ."flashlight-extra" from /etc/event.d and /etc/init.d.

this solved my problem
