Which module are you downloading, and which version of the CMPS are you running?
I'm running 2.0 RC1 with the RC2 fix manually applied.
I've tried this on my own module I've developed as well as several of the built-ins, news, etc.
Neither a search, nor a carefull examination of the .module file shows any evidence of the adv_settings information. Here is a download of minical. Note there should be info for the "Calendar To Display" adv_setting.
