i enabled lua and imlib2 recently, if you want to test just install those two dependencies manually. i don't think i can enable cairo, although cairo can support opengl or qt as an output device, conky is built with that stuff missing. i'd have to take the cairo source and find what we need there, do something with tolua++, and then patch conky again to use the new functions. i really don't understand anything i just said, so don't expect me to do that right now

Just installed the 1.9.0-1b, tried to run apt-get libimlib2 to get that dependency, it complained about other two libraries, tried to install those one by one, where-upon it complained about conky-n900 missing a dependency. Ran apt-get -f install, and after one try where it failed to fetch the stuff for whatever reason, second try with the same command worked lovely.

Old conky.conf file still works, so nothing broke. I'll get around to fiddling when I have time. (Busy phase in semester these upcoming two weeks.)

Assuming Creamy hasn't pushed an updated conky through the autobuilder before then, I'd hope to be able to help out with any remaining packaging and extras stuff towards the end of December, as I have a bunch of time off then (hopefully).

Getting Conky into extras was last Xmas' main project for me.

This version is much cooler than the one in the repo. Thanks!
Just a wild thought: would it be possible to launch Conky upon startup and get it to use one complete desktop space, i.e. kinda like a widget? It would be nice if I can have my usual desktop on #1 and look up the system info on #2.

possibly... every time i try to do something simple i find it's like 4 times harder than i thought. if you find any documentation on how to draw on those windows, let me know. chances are that the desktop panels aren't individual windows though. may be some trick to draw on them still.
i got some really bad code written that just closes conky instantly if you click in the top right area (x>750 && y <50) if in fullscreen mode only. well, it's the best simple solution i could come up with. x11 / xlib has no simple way to detect a double click of course.
