I was just trying some tests on my Ubuntu 12.04 box and compiled my own Vim: Included patches: 1-729
I started Vim using: gvim -u .vimrc -U .gvimrc --noplugin -S /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/plugin/yankring.vim foo "foo" [converted] 5L, 42C Error detected while processing function <SNR>11_YRCheckClipboard: line 5: E341: Internal error: lalloc(0, ) Error detected while processing function <SNR>11_YRFocusGained..<SNR>11_YRCheckClipboard: line 5: E341: Internal error: lalloc(0, ) Press ENTER or type command to continue I can't reproduce this reliably, but since I compiled this myself, I should be able to use a debug version and get a stack trace. Unfortunately, my Linux skills are a little light. I compiled my Vim using (note I am using lightdm window manager): sudo ./configure --with-features=huge --enable-gui=gnome2 --prefix=/usr --enable-perlinterp --enable-pythoninterp --enable-rubyinterp If someone could point out how to enable debug (with Windows I just add debug=yes with nmake) . :ver VIM - Vi IMproved 7.3 (2010 Aug 15, compiled Nov 27 2012 23:20:33) Included patches: 1-729 Compiled by root@myth Huge version with GTK2-GNOME GUI.
