I noticed a bug with this widget (if not reported yet). Localization is broken for built-in calendars. You can fix this by re-doing the Birthday and Mail for Exchange ones but the Private one can't be re-done. Screenshots attached.

Ever since I reflashed my n900, the calendar uses the wrong default calendar. Besides the regular calendars, I have 2 calendars of my own. One for everything (synced with my google agenda) and one I from my sport fraternity (synced form their google agenda).

When I want to add a new event, as default it uses the one from my fraternity, not my own. Is there a way to change this?

Are you familiar with sqlite3?
If so you can take a quick look if your regular calendar has the right
calendar type:

open /home/user/.calendardb/calendar with sqlite and make this select:
select * from calendars;
The sixth column is the calendartype. My default calendar has the type 4.

I am not, but I have just downloaded it. I have copied the calendardb from my device to my Windows desktop. Sqlite3 is also placed there. I just can't figure out yet how to open the file in Sqlite3.

sqlite3 is on your device as well.
Just enter this command in xterm:

sqlite3 /home/user/.calendar/calendardb "select * from calendars;"

It is also possible to use dbBrowser from -devel to view the sqlite databases.

Just out of curiosity: I was looking through the Components and ComponentDetails databases and noticed that ComponentDetails contains a column named Class that can have either a value public or private. These seem to be values that for example MS Outlook can use to decide how the entry in question is displayed in shared calender (calendar owner can see the contents of private entries, others only that the entry is "private appointment"). My question is: would there be any way to change some entries from public (I think N900 calendar makes all entries public by default) to private? This would make it easier to use a synced shared calendar.

Not sure this is you case, but there was a known problem with the calendar, not the widget, that created events wrongly with relation to the timezone where they were created. A problem mainly for travelers, but also for people changing between summer and winter time (I see it is your case as you are in Europe).

The workaround was to delete and recreate the problematic events.
