Description of problem: With the latest patched FC11 (thunderbird 3.0beta4), a copy/paste from jedit to a new message in thunderbird make it crash Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Sorry, I didn't know where to fill this bug since I couldn't find if it's related to thunderbird and/or java and/or Xorg How reproducible: Have a Dell Precision 390 (Nvidia Quadro driver) Download jedit and run it with "java -jar installpath/jedit.jar" Steps to Reproduce: 1. write Hello in jedit 2. copy the string with ctrl+c 3. open a new message on thunderbird 4. paste with ctrl+v Actual results: thunderbird crashes, and even worse, go on crashing until you close jedit. Expected results: paste into thunderbird Additional info: I tried with different versions of java : the one by default from Fedora and the latest jre from Sun. It always crash. I tried with nouveau, vesa and akmod-nvidia driver : it goes on crashing. I tried on another Precision 390 : same crash It also crashes when I use the middle mouse button. It doesn't crash if I choose "paste without formatting" I tried with several other Dell stations (without quadro videocard) : It didn't crash. I don't know how to do further investigations since I have no errors in Xorg logfile but feel free to ask me to do further testings since it's a blocking bug for my users.
OK, let's try to find out what actually is going on: First of all, could we get output of the command rpm -qa *xulrun* *firefox* *mozilla* *flash* *plugin* Please also install firefox-debuginfo (debuginfo-install is from yum-utils package). debuginfo-install firefox Then run firefox with a parameter -g. That will start firefox running inside of gdb debugger. Then use command run and do whatever you did to make firefox crash. When it happens, you should go back to the gdb and run (gdb) thread apply all backtrace This produces usually many screens of the text. Copy all of them into a text editor and attach the file to the bug as an uncompressed attachment. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.

Thank you ! As you can see in the attached file, it crashes after complaning of a "missing" strcmp.S file. But I'm not expert enough to know if it's something missing for thunderbird or for gdb.
