I have a desktop and a laptop, both 64-bit, using thunderbird. I have what seems like the same problem (get segfault) but only on the desktop machine. I have copied the profile from the laptop to the desktop with no apparent help.

Ie. with an identical profile, the desktop crashes, and the laptop doesn't.

"When that happens, I can't start it again (constant segmentation faults) unless I wait about an hour or so."
This is essentially what I experience.

I am running thunderbird, lightning and googleCal provider from the repos.

"File a bug using apport..."
I have enabled apport, and have succeeded in getting TB to crash, but only with googlecal provider enabled. However, I don't get any opportunity to submit a bug report.
(I enabled it by typing "sudo force_start=1 /etc/init.d/apport restart")

Any suggestions appreciated..
