The problem turned out to be simple: The upper right panel on the calendar lists a set of calendars that the calendar program can display. Presumably, it merges them. Each calendar has a check-box beside it (which I, as new used, thought was a mere decoration). Somehow the (only) entry for my own calendar had become unchecked. Once diagnosed, problem was easy to solve -- I just checked my calendar again. Detailed discussion is available at http://bugs.linuxtogo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=154
