Description Johann Glaser 2011-02-01 15:07:41 UTC 
When switching to the calendar view (or starting evolution with calendar as
active component) the Compiz window manager is stuck in a dead-lock. The mouse
pointer can be moved but no other windows can be activated or focused. Gkrellm
also stops to update its display. The situation can only be cleaned by
switching to a text console [Ctrl][Alt][F1] and "killall evolution". This
happens _most_ of the time when the calendar view is displayed the first time
since the start of evolution. After a few tries it works.

Sounds like a Compiz issue.  Works fine under Metacity.
