I'm a long-time conky user/fan. Geriatric geek. Linux Mint user. I would like to ask questions and have found no reliable sources of answers besides the ubuntu forums, and those don't always satisfy.

Sir, I run Conky on Hyprland. But it behaviour to always render conky on the top of all window. I need conky runs as background only. Can you please tell me how to config Conky on Hyprland?

The default script with out_to_wayland set works fine. I added a Wayland section to the wiki so check it out.

Note this thread is for introductions only, you should start a separate thread for your issue because this would've been considered spam if we were on an OG forum.

1. @brndnmtthws, is there possibility to set milliseconds refresh interval? When I'm trying to use 0.5 seconds interval I get this:
   
   I get that this is by design and that's why I'm writing here, not in issues. Also to many results in Issues search by update interval phrase. But anyway any chance to set milliseconds?
2. Also, is there simple way to make your default black theme just on whole desktop screen, not just on a part of a screen? Exactly, simple way, like wide screen argument or parameter?
   Will be amazing to that black one on whole screen?
   Or may be I can find User Config with your theme but wide screen? I saw User Config list, but haven't seen yours wide screened. I'm sorry if my question was asked already. I will understand if you ignore it.

The update interval issue looks like a bug, you should be able to resolve it by setting the value in conkyrc instead of passing it as a CLI argument.

You can set the window minimum width/height to match your desktop size, if you'd like that.

The CLI parsing bug is fixed in this: #1728

@brndnmtthws, thank you for fast reaction and hotfix! Amazing!
How much time it will take until it will be available through official Ubuntu apt repository?
