I couldn't find a clue to what might be wrong. When run from the
terminal I get no errors at all.

$ conky -D
DEBUG(0) [conky.c:5334]: reading contents from config file '/home/<user>/.conkyrc'
Conky: forked to background, pid is 2507
$ 
Conky: desktop window (2600003) is subwindow of root window (107)
Conky: window type - override
Conky: drawing to created window (0x7a00001)
Conky: drawing to double buffer
^C
$ killall conky 
Conky: received SIGINT or SIGTERM to terminate. bye!

Using strace I get a huge output, I don't know how I could filter it
down to the relevant messages.

Downgrading also has the same problem, so its definitely a local issue.

I tried using conky with WindowMaker on this same machine, and it works
perfectly. This led me to conclude it could be some window manager
(xfwm4) setting. So I tried with compositing turned off but no luck
there either. Do you have any ideas to what could be the culprit here?
