I've installed gnome-shell on Ubuntu 11.10 but now, when I'm on Unity, and when I drag and drop text in gedit, gedit crashes ! I've tried to uninstall gnome-shell, but nothing changes.

Could you start gedit from the terminal and do what causes it to crash and then include the terminal output in your question? – N.N. Nov 20 '11 at 12:27
This should probably be a bug report. Off-topic on Ask Ubuntu – Marco Ceppi♦ Mar 6 '12 at 2:11

I was just reading the Gnome 3.2.2 release notes and came accross this:

===========
gedit 3.2.3
===========
New Features and Fixes
======================
- Fix crash when dropping file in gedit with snippets plugin active (Paolo Borelli)

Maybe this is somehow related. It's worth a try to disable the snippets plugin (or update to 3.2.3).
