I assume you mean 21.2.1, if it's the version that comes with RedHat 7.3?

Does it happen if you start Emacs this way:

emacs -q --no-site-file

If not, then the problem is probably in your ~/.emacs file (or possibly
something in the system default files).

If there is nothing obviously wrong with your .emacs, enter

M-: (setq debug-on-error t)

or turn on the "Enter debugger on error" option from the Options menu,
provoke the error again, and post the resulting backtrace.
