Open a terminal and type:
Now find the name of Conky. It would look something like this:
| Code: |
pieman 11722 0.0 0.1 5312 2588 ? S Nov01 0:01 conky
|
Now find the pid number, it will be after the username of the user who has Conky on. Example:
Then type this:

"pkill -9 -f conky" is guaranteed to work.
