I'm sorry not to be more precise, but I suspect that I may not have the
calendar application you are using. But here is what I found:

1. emerge (or run if installed, but it's now a separate package, and I
didn't have it, amazingly) gconf-editor.

2. in gconf-editor, go to / => apps => evolution => calendar (this of
course assumes that evo controls the calendar, which it well might,
since I don't have evo or eds installed and I still have this settings
tree) => display

3. In the "display" tree (items shown now in the right pane), change

"week_start_day"

from "1" (Monday, which is what must be the default, as that's what mine
is set to and I've never touched it)

to

"0" (which represents Sunday, as the text will tell you).

I suppose there's an easier way to do this (perhaps if you have
Evolution installed, you can change it in their prefs setting), and
perhaps this is in fact not the setting that controls the calendar, but
I hope it is, and I hope it helps.

If not, trawl through gconf-editor and see if anything else looks
relevant (for example, if you know the name of the calendar application,
it probably has a settings tree in gconf-editor).

HTH,
Holly
