OK .. first.. lets show you WHY you might want to do this :)
<a class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image" href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/post-798-1139953495.png" data-fileid="477">[img]<fileStore.core_Attachment>/post-798-1139953495.png[/img]</a>
This is my conky :) You can see that this is weighted towards gentoo users
Ok, first the preparation. I will assume that you have conky installed (yum install conky, emerge conky, most systems have it now).
Ok so we need to create a couple of scripts to help create the output. If you aren't a gentoo user, skip these.
If you don't have a local user bin folder then you should make it:
Code:
mkdir ~/bin~/bin/emerge-current.sh
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# emerge-current.sh by Hellf[i]re
#
# This script is designed to read the name of the last package compiled.
#
# As this script does read the entirety of emerge.log, it will be rather
# heavy on the CPU. It shouldn't be enough to be noticable on newer (2.0Ghz+)
# processors, but it still should not be run more often than every 30 seconds.
#
# Usage:
# .conkyrc: ${execi [time] /path/to/script/emerge-current.sh}
#
# Usage Example
# ${execi 30 /home/youruser/scripts/emerge-current.sh}
tail -n 50 /var/log/emerge.log |\
tac |\
grep 'Compiling' |\
head |\
sed -e 's/.*(//' |\

head -n 1 |\
cut -d \) -f 1~/bin/emerge-progress.sh

#
# This script will report the progress of the last emerge command run. It
# reports the TOTAL percentage complete - not the percentage of the current
# package. For example, if there are 110 packages currently being emerged, and
# it is on the 55th package, it will report 50.
#
# Usage:
# .conkyrc: ${execibar [time] /path/to/script/emerge-progress.sh}
#
# Usage Example
# ${execibar 30 /home/youruser/scripts/emerge-progress.sh}
tail -n 50 /var/log/emerge.log |\
tac |\
grep -v "Starting retry" |\
grep -iE '([0-9]* of [0-9]*)' -o -m 1 |\
sed -e 's/\(.*\) of \(.*\)/\1 \2/' |\
awk '{print 100.0*$1/$2}'~/bin/emerge-status.sh
Code:
#!/bin/bash
#
# emerge-status.sh by Hellf[i]re
#
# This script will report the current status of portage.
#
# Usage:
# .conkyrc: ${execi [time] /path/to/script/emerge-current.sh}
#
# Usage Example
# ${execi 30 /home/youruser/scripts/emerge-current.sh}
#
# Known Bugs:
# 1) If there are two emerges running at once, when the first one finishes
# running, the script will report the current status as "Completed".
# 2) If there is a emerge running and you run a search, the script will
# report the current status as "Completed", until the running emerge
# moves to the next package, or itself completes.
# The reasons for this are twofold - one, it's a feature;) and two, there
# would be far too much parsing required to find out the current status of
# every command which is run in parallel.

Thats it.. start up conky and it will run. If you are using KDE/Gnome you will need to tamper with them to make it work because conky doesn't work well with them yet.
Conky's Home where I sourced the script and 99% of the idea to the production of this layout.
Weeeeee.. just a quick jaunt.. ask questions if you have any
OH ..
Code:
${color #ffcb48}PING$color mute${execi 50 sh -c "ping -q -c5 mute | tail -n 2 | head -n 1 | cut -d',' -f3" }This line is used to ping another system in my local network, you can either edit the name "mute" to be another machine, or remove the line as it will loose 100% of its packets.
See below for information about securing the genlop command.
