Bug Description

Binary package hint: thunderbird

I am using Linux Ubuntu 10.10 Maverik Meerkat. Suddenly Thunderbird 3.1.8 build3 starts crashing on startup. I don't know how to run it in safe mode but here's what I read somewhere tried it and same result I used the terminal and typed in thunderbird -safe-mode
Same result still it pops up for a tenth of a second and it closes on its own.

Here's what I get when Running it through the terminal

progname=thunderbird-bin; RGBA=on

I solved this problem it seemed like nothing but what had happened with me before this problem was that I had installed a package called gtk2-engines-murrine after which the problem started.
but after I uninstalled that package restarted same thing.
I remember that the package mentioned something about RGBa so I uninstalled gtk2-module-rgba and gtk2-engines-murrine restarted opened thunderbird it worked.
I re-installed those 2 packages and everything worked fine.
