Did an apt-get update / upgrade yesterday afternoon and everything looked normal. But after rebooting, Conky was gone. I get the config file ok but it isn't on desktop (or whatever the display is called in Fluxbox).

Any ideas?

Try clicking

FluxboxMenu>WM's>conky on/off

and see if it appears.

I think I did, but will try that again when I get home. (Notebook computer is at home, I am at work.)

Very strange.

Went home and got the notebook computer -- l live less than a mile from my office. Booted it up and Conky is back.

Booted up the computer and Conky was there. Shut down, brought computer back up, and Conky was gone. The Conky on/off brought it back. Shut down again and restarted -- Conky was there. Rebooted and still had Conky.

FWIW I have noticed the same behavior. I did not notice exactly when it started happening, but I have also performed the update, so it is possible they could be related. It is puzzling at any rate.
