Hi, John -- Thanks for your comments. I tried changing the way I launch Thunderbird. Instead of invoking the executable directly, I am now exec'ing it from a shell script that captures any output into a log file. After I did this, Thunderbird courteously obliged by freezing :-}, and I got the following error:
*** glibc detected *** /home/richw/lib/thunderbird/thunderbird-bin: malloc(): memory corruption: 0xaad841a0 *** plus a backtrace and a memory map, which I'm including here as an attachment. Since this is my production work environment, I really can't "disable all plugins/addons/extensions" without creating what, for me, would be an unusable setup. If there's any way at all to use the error output I just got to identify any offending add-on, that would be very helpful to me in this situation. ** Attachment added: "Error output from Thunderbird crash" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/19793381/thunderbird.12479 -- Thunderbird freezes on dual core system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155415 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
