Hi. I use Conky Manager as a convenient way to give me Conky on my desktop with minimal effort on my part. I began using it back when my OS was still Mint 17.x KDE4, & each of the widgets of it that i used, worked well. Once i upgraded to Maui, last year, three of my preferred CM widgets broke, either entirely or partly. With help obtained in the Mint fora, i was able to solve two of the problems, thus 5 of my 6 CM widgets once again work nicely, in Maui.

The one widget that remains partly [/mostly] broken is the one for the NVidia card:
   

From inxi -Fxz there's this extract:
   

The relevant section in Conky Manager for this widget is:
Code:
TEXT
${color2}GPU Temp ${alignr}${color0}${nvidia temp} °C
${color2}Fan Speed ${alignr}${color0}${execi 5 nvidia-settings -q [fan:0]/GPUCurrentFanSpeed -t} %
${color2}GPU Clock ${alignr}${color0}${nvidia gpufreq} MHz
${color2}Mem Clock ${alignr}${color0}${nvidia memfreq} MHz
${color2}Mem Used ${alignr}${color0}${execi 5 nvidia-settings -q [gpu:0]/UsedDedicatedGPUMemory -t} / ${exec nvidia-settings -q [gpu:0]/TotalDedicatedGPUMemory -t} MiB
${image ./nvidia.png -p 0,90 -s 200x132}

Does anyone pls have any idea which edits i need to make to this file so that the widget correctly communicates with my NVidia card like it used to do back in Mint 17 ?

I have never used Conky.
Would this be the widget or could this be of help?

Thanks Pliny. That is indeed the widget. Didn't know it was available for separate download, but anyway via my using his Conky Manager i have all the widgets in the one package. This one worked fine in Mint KDE4, but as you can see comparing his pic to mine [above], not in Maui.

Closing this thread now. Clearly nobody here knows, + [per https://forums.mauilinux.org/showthread....1#pid41551] i've now changed from the NVidia proprietary GPU driver to the Nouveau driver.
