KDE and transparent conky

How to set up transparency for conky on KDE...

This is very simple to set up. All you need is conky and feh. Feh is a simple picture viewer.

First set the transparency in the .conkyrc file:

# own_window_type normal # desktop, normal, override
own_window_hints below,sticky,undecorated,skip_taskbar,override 
own_window_transparent yes

Afterwards you can start feh:
feh --bg-center ~/background.png & - the background.png is the image which will be used as background for conky. This should be the same as the background picture on your desktop to make conky transparent.
 
conky - start conky. It should be transparent now.
