Okay.

To run gdb on this, do the following:
gdb /usr/bin/lyx core
You will get something like this:
GNU gdb 4.17.0.11 with Linux support
Copyright 1998 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
[...]
This GDB was configured as "i386-redhat-linux"...
Core was generated by `lyx'.
Program terminated with signal 4, Illegal instruction.

Now, at the gdb prompt, type:
where
This will show something like:
(gdb) where
#0 0x402749ee in __select ()
#1 0x4008a848 in xpmDataTypes ()
#2 0x40046427 in get_next_event ()

You will run all these commands in a terminal.
You can select and paste using the left mouse button and the middle button:
To select a region of text, move the cursor to the beginning of the block
and press the first mouse button down. Holding this button down, drag the
mouse to the end of the block and release. The whole text should be selected.
Now, in your mailer, press the *middle* mouse button and the text you just
selected should be inserted at the place where you put the cursor.
If you don't have gdb, you should install it and then follow these instructions
so that we have half a chance at fixing your complaint.
Just so you don't get the idea that that I am a total nice guy: RTFM! ;-)
