In the GNOME world it's common to call it the gnome-panel.

In the appointment definition window (=appointment editor/composer)
there is a dropdown called "Calendar" as you can have several calendars
for different needs. Can you please go to the Calendar window of
Evolution, and check in the left pane (the list of calendars) whether
the same calendar is actually enabled (via the checkbox)? If it is not
enabled its content is not displayed in the Evolution calendar window.

Ubuntu 10.10 mostly includes GNOME 2.32 but they decided to ship
Evolution 2.30 with it.

Maybe some private PPA repository exists on Ubuntu's Launchpad.net.
