Yes pls., I expect there is no problem with compiz off?

On my system there is a constant 1 hour offset, which I don' t yet know if it is by design or a mistake (perhaps linked to some UTC or Summer Time offset), this needs further investigation.
Conky just takes the login time from utmp, the same source used for instance by who, and compute the user_time(s) by diffing with the current time.

This should be feasible, but all your problems/questions are really for upstream. I would suggest you open a bug report there (and link it here for traceability) so that upstream developers can see and comment.
