You need to explain in more detail.
What version of Puppy?
Frugal or full install?
You do what? You see what?

Copy and paste your conky setup would be helpful as well.
Or try gkrellm.

ok it works but...black box behind it - right?
Sounds like an setting in the .conkyrc
or rox pin-board?
play with the settings within .conkyrc - you must stop/restart conky to see any changes.
but.....

try rox -p= in the console.
