Bug Description

I am running the gnome-classic session with compiz in Oneiric. Whenever I double a click on a date in the calendar of the clock applet nothing happens. Starting the gnome-panel from the terminal I receive a message that indicates the problem. The message is "Cannot open display:".

It is especific of gnome-panel but not of gnome-classic session. Running gnome-panel on gnome-shell or unity also has the same problem. In all cases, running gnome-panel from the terminal displays the "Cannot open display:" error whenever the calendar is clicked.

Additionally, I would like to clarify that the evolution calendar events are correctly displayed; it is just the editing that does not work.

With Ubuntu 12.04 this still does not work. The terminal message is different though. It now says "Cannot launch calendar/tasks application: evolution -c calendar in path."
