hi @funyfizik

install this conky pet from xenial http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pe ... -1.9.0.pet
if it doesn't work, keep the .pet installed and then install conky from the package manager.
you should then have a conky option in menu>>>desktop

Hi funyfizik,

First, never apologize for not being fluent in other than your native language. It just reminds many of us how limited we are speaking only one language. The only thing I can say in Russian is 'nyet'. :)

Supplementing 666philb's post about conky:

Take a look at Mike Walsh's screenshot here, viewtopic.php?p=6220#p6220 I think he's using a combination of conky and gkrellm. You can email him about it. I'm sure he is willing to provide guidance. I'm currently running Bionicpup64. Menu>Setup>Puppy Package Manager's Search box shows that gkrellm is available; and https://pkgs.org/search/?q=gkrellm shows a version available for 32-bit Bionic. So you're Package Manager very likely can provide it.

Personally, I still prefer zigbert's pwidgets which uses an older version of conky but will display 'non-system' widgets --such as Osmo's tasks-- and an analog clock (xonclock). See viewtopic.php?p=12251#p12251 and viewtopic.php?p=9530#p9530.

You can obtain the version that will run under bionicpup (32-bit) from the link here, http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 1de#249211
