Ubuntu: Solving conky did not display on gnome-shell 3.6

Conky, conky lua script that dowloaded from gnome-look did not display any graphics on gnome-shell.

To fix; we need to edit the Conky's config file a.k.a. .conkyrc file


Replace own_window_type override with following lines:

own_window_type normal
...
You might add this line if your script did not have it.
own_window_argb_visual yes
...

Finish? then
killall conky 

then execute conky again, now it should display the graphics
