This workaround doesn't solve the problem for me. Since I am using OpenJDK, this is probably an OpenJDK related bug. Can anyone using OpenJDK confirm this?
Here is what they wrote in ubuntuforums.org: "I experienced the same problem with matlab 2008b and thunderbird 2.x I solved the problem by changing the default jvm used by matlab by adding a line like EXPORT MATLAB_JAVA=/the/path/of/your/jvm in the matlab script that launch matlab. The jvm that i'm using is from the sun-java6 (/path/to/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.16/jre/ more precisely) Since this change, no more crashes with thunderbird !" -- Thunderbird crashes when a text is pasted into the compose window if MATLAB r2008a is also running. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/465429 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
