https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/issues/1939 not sure if this is related. this fix it?

@maxulm Do you mind providing the following details so I can triage this issue better:

  • Which WM/DE you're using? Is it wayland/X11?
  • Provide the whole script file. Just dump it here, I'll clean it up if needed.
  • How do you start conky? Is it with Xinitrc, WM/DE autostart script, manually?
    • Does the issue occur when started manually from the terminal?

Depending on those, there might be some additional questions I'll ask.

Hi, thank you!

  1. I'm using KDE 6.1 with wayland
  2. See below
  3. With KDE autostart, but the problem still occurs starting conky via terminal

Right, Wayland support is very WIP at the moment. There's a lot of things that don't work correctly.

Do you mind running conky -DD and pasting the whole debug output?

The 4 lines are always repeating. I've stopped the process at the end.

Closing as duplicate of #1960.

Than you for the additional infomation. It's linked with the other issue so whoever gets to fixing it will see it.
