conky -c start_conky
Conky: desktop window (16000a5) is subwindow of root window (2ef)
Conky: window type - normal
Conky: drawing to created window (0x5200002)
Conky: drawing to double buffer
I have no idea if lua is enabled, I never did something with conky, how can I check this
a additional problem could be that I am at work and therefore at the moment on rehl 6.5,
which looks super boring, and that's why I would like to have this.

You should have something like this (see bold text):
Code:

desktop is a gnome2 , metacity
but I think I do something horrible wrong,
I downloaded the archive and now I have the 2 files, lua_widgets.lua start_conky in a folder
there I make conky start_conky,
I have no idea how this could shoe the calender/ clock
it contains no info, nothing,
just

so I think I miss something
You miss to type "-c", so you should start conky like this:
I think the 12 CPUs in this machine are to much for this script
Code:
Conky: llua_do_call: function conky_start_widgets execution failed: lua_widgets.lua:172: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'conky_value' (a nil value)
but 6 are ok
however , I like the calender, so that's the main feature for me
will see what I do with the rest

You have 12 physical cores? Or you have 6 physical cores + 6 virtual cores, temperature sensor only account the physical ones.

Im glad it worked!
6, yes, that's why I have written that it works with 6, after reading the comment :-)
thanks again fo rhelp
looks nice, I do not now where for the outer circle is, with numbers 1 > 59, there is no movement,
but that is a minor issue
