Hello all!
I run several Pis with BAP. My main Pi 4 8gb is used mostly in the home shack for remote FT8 over VNC, as well as POTA. It's on Bullseye, and it's been super reliable. BAP/73Linux features are very valuable to me.
I'm building a new Pi to use with a new-to-me FT-891. As such, I've decided to try out Bookworm, and I'm having some issues.
?
So far, I've:
-installed the latest image of Raspberry Pi OS
-ran 73Linux for the items I want (conky and others)
-switched from Wayland to X11 so RealVNC works
-got RealVNC working the way I need (adjusted config.txt with a few minor lines of code to force a console size, and hdmi_force_hotplug to resolve fullscreen window sizing issues)
?
But Conky has been a real issue. With hdmi_force_hotplug=1 implemented, it's in the right spot, but it's basically just a black box, with no text. I've done some reading, and it seems it's a colour interpretation issue. I was able to edit .conkyrc to change one line to "draw_outline = true,", and I end up with the attached screenshot.
?
Any ideas how I can move forward to make Conky work properly? I mean, at least now it's usable... but barely.
Oh - Where did the option to change the temps to Celsius get moved to? It used to be in Conky-prefs, I don't see it now.
?
Thanks in advance!
