daghag pamaagi ang pagsetup og conoky but this guide is i think pinaka simple nga even ang bata nga 6yrs old kabalo ani :P

Method 1:
download the source from here CONKY-colors GNOME-Look.org and extract bisag sa home folder pwede ra.

Terminal Commands:
1. sudo apt-get install aptitude python-statgrab ttf-droid hddtemp curl lm-sensors conky-all
2. sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/hddtemp
3. sudo sensors-detect --- answer tanan all yes para madali

cd conky_colors
make
sudo make install
./conky-colors --help for me i choose cairo mode kay ganahan lang ko...
./conky-colors --cairo --cpu=2(core2duo_akoa) --swap --clock=cairo --wireless --network
(skip lang nako ang ubang options like rythmbox or etc..) then cd and close the terminal.
to run:
hit ALT+F2 and type: conky -c /home/scriptwarlock/.conkycolors/conkyrc

Method 2: Conky Orange

download the source here conky_orange GNOME-Look.org
and extract sa home folder. if you want to customize edit lang ang conkyrc...

1. sudo apt-get install aptitude python-statgrab ttf-droid hddtemp curl lm-sensors conky-all
2. sudo chmod u+s /usr/sbin/hddtemp
3. sudo sensors-detect
make a conky folder --- mkdir .conky

copy/move the extracted file of conky orange to .conky
conkyrc_orange
conky_orange.lua

and run like this sa terminal conky -c ~/.conky/conkyrc_orange

para maclose ang terminal just ctrl+c lang..
