This says you have 407 entries in your evolution calendar.

In Evolution 2.4.x, we have fixed an issue which was creating
ramdom-empty entries while deleting a calendar event/task.

I would suggest an upgrade to 2.4.x or 2.5.x.  A daily snapshot is being
built for SuSE 9.3 and can be downloaded from
http://gnomebangalore.org/~sragavan/
