Actually, this is not really a bug in the calendar, but rather a bug in the theming. I am also attaching a screenshot with the ambiance theme from my Unity desktop, with the same month selected. You can spot the differences: * The invalid dates you mention (35-40) are the week numbers, with the same background color as the weekday header, to be able to differentiate it from the days of the month * 26th of September is on Wednesday, see row 5 column 4, the 26 on Sunday appears because the calendar shows whole weeks only, which might include a few days from the last month (26-31 August in this case, in the first row) and a few days from the next month (1-6 of October in the last row). I agree that colouring these with a different color would be nice, to be able to differentiate the days of the current month from the next/previous month. Based on what I have explained above, I suggest splitting this in two separate bugs: * A bug for your theme (what theme are you using? What desktop environment) for the week numbers' background being the same color as the dates' background * A bug for indicator-datetime (containing the calendar) about colouring the dates of next/previous month with a different color than the one used for the current month. (I have created bug #1075502 for this)

Additionally, there are invalid dates and an extra column of dates to the left of the calendar. See attached screenshot. 35-26-27-28-29-30-31-1 36-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 37-9-10-11-12-13-14-15 38-16-17-18-19-20-21-22 etc Also the entire gnome-panel crashes when I add the calendar to the panel. It's inconceivable that in the year 2012 we still don't have a working calendar. FFS. See attached screenshot. See attached screenshot. See attached screenshot.
