I did that, started it in an XTerm, and I get:

 GLIB Warning ** Glib-Object - invalid cast from 'Event' to 'EventSource'

.. Any ideas? I started it again, and got:
The same thing message followed by :

/var/spool/at/1192282200.20-29999: No such file or directory
followed by:

GLIB WARNING ** default - Failed to run at to schedule next alarm

and the calendar remains active. I have an alarm for later, I'll let you
know what happens tomorrow morning.
