Will Lazarus work on Suse 9.1 with Kernel 2.6 (due out at April 23)  ?

I just installed SuSE 9.1 and I'm trying to use Lazarus. Seems that
everything works fine, but the problem with SuSE: can't find lgtk! I
changed the fpc.cfg just like posted in the FAQs, but the error still
occurs. (Maybe anyone can help me with this?) So if Lazarus will find
the gtk-libraries everything schoul work. I think you can use SuSE
9.1.

Hello,

I solved the problem. I just copied the necessary library files to
/usr/lib/ ! (I changed the fpc.cfg like posted in the FAQs, but that
didn't work...).

So you can certainly use SuSE 9.1 and Lazarus. Everything works fine
now!

How did you change the fpc.cfg? Did you make the changes in a fpc.cfg,
that was used?

(Just trying to find out, what is wrong with the FAQ).

If you mean, if the fpc.cfg was in use, no. I just changed the fpc.cfg
which ist after the installation in the /etc/ path and then started
Lazarus. Then tried to compile, but it seems the compiler didn't
notify the change... (Maybe you should delete the old path within the
fpc.cfg??)
(I know it's not very smart just to copy the files into the new path,
but it works..)

Sorry for my English, I didn't mean in use, but (how should I say it)
whether is was actually used by lazarus when compiling.

It seems somehow your changes weren't picked up by the compiler.

Would you like to try the following:
Open in lazarus the compiler options dialog (depending on which
version you are using in the project or the run menu) and press the
Test button.

Scan the output for a line containing:
Reading options from file ....
What file is mentioned there?
If it is /etc/fpc.cfg, check if there are line like
Handling option -Fl/opt/....
Interpreting option -Fl/opt/....
and further down
Using library path: /opt/....

TIA
Vincent.

Hum, I would say the FAQs are okay... I think it could be my fault...
because you have to put a symbolic link into the opt/gnome... lazarus
find it.
So now I should start PROGRAMMING
