Conky: RAM monitor does not work correctly

Created on 23 Nov 2019 · 4Comments · Source: brndnmtthws/conky

After upgrading my system, my conky became like this:

The dependent code is:

${voffset 5}${color1}${font ubuntu:size=11:regular}RAM usage: ${font}${color6}$mem${color1}${alignr}${font ubuntu:size=11:regular}Free: ${font}${color6}$memeasyfree
${color6}${membar}

Informations

System:Manjaro 18.1.3
DE:Deepin Desktop Environment
Kernel:Linux 4.19.84-1-MANJARO

That should be fixed already. Try aur/conky-git. Close this when you confirm it. Thanks.

I have this issue too. Using conky 1.11.5, conky shows a negative RAM value every few seconds, e.g. "-2,75 GiB/31,0 GiB".
This bug has appeared after using a 5.3.x kernel. It seems conky has problems with kernel 5.x.?
free -h does show the correct values.

Is it possible you updated both conky and kernel? https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/pull/878 is not part of 1.11.5 so it'll be in 1.11.6 (not released). Also, you can try older version 1.11.4.

Duplicate https://github.com/brndnmtthws/conky/issues/886.
