coubi64 This conky is working fine on my PC.
Just copy victorConky and fonts to ~/.conky and them with conky-manager select ony of 7 conkys available.

Did you install using the script or the instructions in the README file?

@Justin I used the script

@algent copying the 2 folders into ~/.conkyworked.

Thanks for the answers.

Maybe it's because I'm running budgie and not gnome, but I can't get the conky to display properly either. I've tried running the install script and also manual copy and paste of the victorconky and font folders to the .conky folder, but still doesn't work.
Sorry if I'm missing something, still trying to learn.

Edit: I tried running the same conky in Ubuntu Budgie, works well there...

I am having the same issue as well, the text is visible but none of the graphical elements are. Did you find a fix?

@VTMarik Works fine for me, both on GNOME and Budgie. Did you do the manual installation method? (I did)

What does your ~/.conky folder and ~/.conky/victorConky folder look like?

edit: In the case of @Brucehankins above the mistake seems to have been having a nested ~/.conky/victorConky/victorConky folder. There should only be ONE victorConky folder, with no further subfolder, containing all the files.
