I figured out how to replace the guayadeque tray icon.
So now I have something that looks like this;

The script output (run it in a terminal) includes something that looks like this


${image /tmp/conkyCover.png -s 90x82 -p 21,745}


"-p" = position x,y.
Edit that part at the end of the...

To get the image you need;
a) conky-colors, which includes the cd-case icons
b) a conky version with imlib2 support (check with "conky -v"), in karmic the version required is "conky-all".

I added some new albums to the library and obtained their lyrics in quayadeque, using the default server.
The lyrics were saved to the id3 tags and display perfectly using guayadeque or other linux...

First of all congratulations on a job well done.

I have it placed under the path, so I just add:


${execpi 5 guayCover}

to .conkyrc, where 5 is the update interval in seconds.
Alternatively replace guayCover with a full path.

I'll repeat...

Great work :KS
Mediamonkey is my golden standard for media management and this is as close as I've ever come with a linux app.

Any thoughts on integrating some kind of format conversion?

You will want to align the partitions on the ssd - something not required on a hdd.
I'm not sure if that's possible with clonezilla and I think that it will destroy any pre-existing alignment.

Well everything works for me, but I fixed the ati driver differently.
