Thank you all for your help, 

It seems that there is something wrong with the fonts(?)  I have managed to 
launch weatherforecast which works fine, but calendar and volume do not.  I 
tried testing them and this is what I get:
==========================================
$ ./volume.py 
Do you want to (r)egister this desklet or to (t)est it? t
Now testing...
============================================================
If you do not see anything (or just an initial flicker
in the top left corner of your screen), try `--help',
and see the FAQ: `info adesklets'.
============================================================
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise ADESKLETSError(4,message)

==========================================

Of course volume does not show up at all.  How do I fix this?
