conky 1.4.8-1 installed from the extra repo.
I use
$memperc% $mem/$memmax
in my ~/.conkyrc and I always get a usage of about 93%.
I checked with free and sure enough:
vladuz ~ $ free
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1554228 1487056 67172 0 134456 1100004
-/+ buffers/cache: 252596 1301632
Swap: 530136 0 530136
I have plenty of free memory.
Conky displays including the buffers and cache!
Why is that, and how can I change that?
I compared to what other people have in their conkyrc and they have the same and are getting the correct output.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

From the conky website - http://conky.sourceforge.net/config_settings.html
no_buffers | Substract (file system) buffers from used memory?
Somewhere in your config you must have this, I believe:
no_buffers no
By default, this is set to 'yes' (meaning if you want to subtract buffers, just leave 'no_buffers' completely out of your ~/.conkyrc).
