mint 17 conky not drawing clock arms

Post by schema »

I am running cinnamon. I believe I have everything needed already installed to run conky widgets wth lua script: conky conky-all. I am trying to load a default theme from conky-manager interface. the widgets load, the lua rings load, however the clock arms aren't drawn inside the rings. here is a screenshot. this is not how it is supposed to look. i am a conky noob so I don't know how to trouble shoot this. I am either missing a package for conky, for lua, or perhaps another theme setting in my profile is conflicting somehow. here is a screenshot:

And here is the lua file for the rings and clock:


--[[
# Clock Rings by Linux Mint (2012) reEdited by Altin.
#
# This script draws percentage meters as rings, and also draws clock hands if you want! It is fully customisable; all options are described in the script.
# This script is based off a combination of my clock.lua script and my rings.lua script.
#
# IMPORTANT: If you are using the 'cpu' function, it will cause a segmentation fault if it tries to draw a ring straight away.
# The if statement on line 324 uses a delay to make sure that this doesn't happen.
# It calculates the length of the delay by the number of updates since Conky started.
# Generally, a value of 5s is long enough, so if you update Conky every 1s,
# use update_num>5 in that if statement (the default).
# If you only update Conky every 2s, you should change it to update_num>3;
# conversely if you update Conky every 0.5s, you should use update_num>10.
# ALSO, if you change your Conky, is it best to use "killall conky; conky" to update it,
# otherwise the update_num will not be reset and you will get an error.
#
# To call this script in Conky, use the following in your conkyrc:
#
# lua_load ~/.conky/clock01_rings.lua
# lua_draw_hook_pre clock_rings
#
