here's the workaround, which does NOT resolve this bug:
1. open /etc/X11/xorg.conf
2. add this line
Load "dbe"
so it looks like this:
Section "Module"
Load "i2c"
Load "bitmap"
Load "ddc"
Load "dri"
Load "extmod"
Load "freetype"
Load "glx"
Load "int10"
Load "type1"
Load "vbe"
Load "dbe"
EndSection
--note: your section may be different
3. Restart gnome/X
In Dapper LiveCD Beta2, I couldn't stop X with
$sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
so I ended up doing
$ sudo killall gdm
and start X again with
$ startx
Just to repeat myself, this doesn't solve this bug in conky, this is just a workaround.
