Drawing to root or some other desktop window directly doesnt work with
all window managers. Especially doesnt work well with Gnome and it has
been reported that it doesnt work with KDE either. Nautilus can be
disabled from drawing to desktop with program gconf-editor. Uncheck
show_desktop in /apps/nautilus/preferences/. There is -w switch in
Conky to set some specific window id. You might find xwininfo -tree
useful to find the window to draw to. You can also use -o argument
which makes Conky to create its own window.
