Ubuntu – Nvidia plugin for Conky

conkynvidia

I want to display GPU speed, Memory, and Temperature on my conky configuration. On the conky site it says you can use ${nvidia temp}°C to show it. However, when this happens, it takes it as litteral text. I've read a bit, and it looks like I'm missing a plugin or something. Some sources say to install Nvidia-Settings which I've already had installed. (PS i have a gefore 360m)

I was able to get a temp reading as you can see in the top of this picture. I used a long line of code ${execi 60 nvidia-settings -query GPUCoreTemp | perl -ne 'print $1 if /GPUCoreTemp.*?: (\d+)./;'} °C But the conky objects are much cleaner, and I'd like to just be able to use them instead.

Does anyone know how I can get this working? (See VIDEO section)

Here's the code for the Video section…

${font Arial:bold:size=10}${color White}VIDEO ${color DarkSlateGray}${hr 2}
$font${color DimGray}NVidia GeForce 360m GPU $alignr${nvidia gpufreq}Mhz
Memory $alignr${nvidia memfreq}Mhz Temperature $alignr${nvidia temp}Mhz

enter image description here
