N900 calendar widget

Is there anywhere that documents what events appear on the calendar widget? My assumption was that it would show the next few calendar events, but mine is showing apparently random events - one this month, one in March, two in August then one next December. But there are lots of events in-between.

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but it's not obvious enough for me...

You mean the calendar on your N900 or the maemo.org community calendar?

You're right, the calendar on the tablet should be showing the upcoming
events you've added to the agenda.

Cheers,
Dave.

It's the one on the N900 itself.

What I'm struggling to work out is why some events apparently ARE in the agenda but others aren't. When I look at any particular event, I can't see any reference to "agenda", either as part of the editable data or any other note. All show as being in "Calendar (local)".

So I suppose the question I'm PROBABLY asking is "how do I add an event to the agenda as well as the calendar?"

Cheers
Tony

The built-in calendar widget for home screen should show coming events from
the calendar (start with today's all day events, then today's coming events
ordered by time, then events from coming days) and if there are any tasks,
show information about those in the last row.

Why it does not show those things for you I cannot explain right now.

Have you entered all the events in the calendar the same way (manually,
through synchronization, etc?)

I haven't tested this but is there a chance that you are using multiple
calendars and that one or more of these calendars is turned off. I know if I
go into the calendar, settings, then edit calendars I have three Birthdays,
N900 Local, and Private. If you are setting events to private maybe they
don't show on the applet
