Hi,

I tried to describe this error a while ago, but did not get any response 
- probably due to the fact, that I can not find out, how to securely 
reproduce this very annoying behaviour; I will try to describe:

1. I try to reschedule an entry (C-c C-s)
2. The buffer with the org file seems to be replaced by a calendar
3. Futhermore 2 additional buffers appear with the calendar in it
4. If can not assign a date meaning cursor movement (Shift Left/Right) 
seems to be random e.g. skipping a few day and also going in the wrong 
direction (e.g. left means right)
5. If I try quitting emacs, I am asked if I want to save the original 
org-mode buffer (in which I tried to reschedule a date)
6. If I dare to do this, emacs will write the calender into this buffer 
thereby erasing the original org mode file.

I tried to deliver a backtrace (load org-mode and activate the debugger 
according to [1]) but: There is no error message at all (!sic)!

The only thing I could do is to make a screenshot showing state no. 3 [2].

This makes keeping track of dates in org-mode almost unusable for me. 
Does anyone have an idea, what I could do to pinpoint this behaviour?

I am running org-mode 8.2 (updated today, but have had this error since 
a while) on emacs 24.3.1 on Linux Crunchbang Waldorf.

Thanks for any hints and thanks alot for wonderful org-mode in general
Martin
