[solved] Installing conky on antixcore+LXDE ?

[Member mikey777]

I would like to install a desktop conky on an antix19.4core+LXDE setup. The conky I would like is the type that normally comes prepackaged with the standard iso file of antiX, showing CPU & RAM activity, etc.

What is the package’s name – can I install it from either the terminal or from synaptic package manager ?
Many thanks in advance for any help on this.

@Xecure
Many thanks for this – I’ve now got it up and running 🙂
But how do I enable ‘Automount’, so that I don’t have to mount it manually through the terminal ?

You mean “autostart”. Use lxde’s method to autostart applications. No idea how that works, something in ~/.config/autostart maybe? See how it is normally done in LXDE.

The command could be

I really do apologize – not quite myself at the moment – been quite stressful within the family recently regarding Covid.
So, I had already had this solved in an earlier post in 2020, the link is

Thanks Xecure – sincere apologies about this.
