Well - the dpi fixes done do not work for a 1080p display - in fact, I would like to know if this can be manually fixed by a 'resolution' statement or a 'dpi' statement. Ideally I would like to downgrade this to 1.20.2 version as that is the only one working on my Arch Linux desktop with KDE 6.1+ DE. I switched from XFCE over a year back.

OK I have spent some time on the issue but apparently the maximum_width / height etc the scaling is totally out - vertically 3.19 horizontally it's something else...

With 5 to 9 different conky running at the same time - I do not see it working

Please update this to v1.21.4, it has all the dpi fixes that caused the latest weird sizing / positioning behavior

Only version 1.20.2 is working - non of the options tricks or moves work for the new builds. Also if it is working - please also state the distro and other relevant information that could help. I am sure it works but i get half windows and totally wild placement - which is unrelated to any positional metrics I am aware of...

I added to PKGBUILD -D BUILD_LUA_XLIB=ON \ -D BUILD_X11=ON \

And to my lua file this: require 'cairo_xlib'

Now works my lua rings

Tips: Due to upstream updates, the original require 'cairo' in the lua script needs to add

require 'cairo'
require 'cairo_xlib'

See the previous issue

v1.21.3 is kinda working with require 'cairo_xlib' and the BUILD_LUA_CAIRO_XLIB=ON build option for me. I only have a problem where some rings i made with a lua script doesnt show the correct color.

The latest build [1.21.3] is not working for me - the display is there but the size and position are out So I am leaving it as is.

This package (v1.21.2), doesn't work with my lua scripts that were previously working fine.

Even with require 'cairo' and require 'cairo_xlib' AND the BUILD_LUA_CAIRO_XLIB=ON build option, i can't get lua graphics to display.

There's also a problem with the PKGBUILD file in this 1.21.2-1 version, in that the depends=( block for non-nvidia seems to have been removed. That's easy enough to fix manually, though.

I downloaded the 1.20.2 source from upstream and that works flawlessly for me. The 1.19.7 and 1.19.8 versions kept pegging my CPU at 100% any time the window manager gave conky an expose event.

SO if anyone else is having problems, i recommend the 1.20.2 version.
