If this is known, can you link the upstram report? The calendar is working fine here.

Hi. I reported it know because of posts found on other forums where users got over the problem by removing calendar from the desktop. I tried it myself and allso got over the problem but when adding calendar back to desktop plasma starts using 100% CPU immediately. I hope this post helps even by little.

Could you try to reproduce this with a newly created user account?

Henri,

if you dont provide _all_ infos you have found, the developers cannot even imagine what's going wrong.

Simple: If you have more infos, like bugreports or the "other forums" you mentioned here, be sure to INCLUDE that into your bug or no one will be able to reproduce this issue or even find a solution to it...

Telepathy was not invented so far (or did i miss it?), so this is a must ;)

Ok. Some updates. This happens after i move the calendar. So if i just add it to desktop, the CPU usage doesn't change but after i start to cahange it's position CPU usage immidietly jumps to 100%. Hope this helps.
