Conky Harmattan Is A Stylish Desktop Companion For Linux
|

================================================================================

**To butcher a well-worn phrase, ‘With great power comes great frustration’ – at least that’s the case when wrestling with Conky, the versatile system monitoring tool for Linux.**
|
||
|
||
On the one hand it’s super featured and highly versatile, on the other it’s a pain in the rump to configure.
|
||
|
||
![Several themes and modes are included](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Screen-Shot-2014-01-21-at-20.42.42.png)
|
||
|
||
**Conky Harmattan**, a new collection of themes from deviantArt user Zagortenay333, is no exception to this rule. Whilst the screenshots show off a stylish desktop widget that’s sure to impress most who see it, the effort needed to get it running will scare many of those people away.
|
||
|
||
To help, its creator has included a **thorough step-by-step guide to installing** it and, for when things don’t quite appear as planned, a **helpful “troubleshooting” file** lists fixes for some of the most commonly encountered issues.
|
||
|
||
Harmatten includes:
|
||
|
||
- **12 themes**, including Ubuntu Touch, Numix and Elementary designs
|
||
- **4 display modes**, including ‘mini’ and ‘compact’
|
||
- **2 weather modes**
|
||
- **Metric and Imperial weather unit options**
|
||
|
||
By default Harmattan is “fixed”; this means that you can’t move it around using your mouse. Instead you’ll need to adjust the ‘x’ and ‘y’ gap values in the conky-config file during setup – another tick in the “faff” column!
|
||
|
||
Unlike most Conky Themes Harmattan doesn’t require you to jump through lua rings hoops to replicate on your screen what you see on others’.
|
||
|
||
### Getting Harmattan Conky ###
|
||
|
||
To use this theme you’ll first need to install conky-all and curl from the Ubuntu Software Centre. Without these some features may not work.
|
||
|
||
- [Install conky-all in Ubuntu][1]
|
||
- [Install curl in Ubuntu][2]
|
||
|
||
Next, to download the theme head on over to the author’s deviantArt page.
|
||
|
||
- [Download Conky Harmattan][3]
|
||
|
||
After extracting the Harmattan package archive, press Ctrl+H in the Nautilus file browser to view ‘hidden’ files.
|
||
|
||
Lastly, fire up the ‘Installation’ read me and follow the advice.
