I can't use neither lazarus nor my programs build with lazarus in
Mandriva 2006 because its ugly and unusable appearance.

As allways I did, I installed fpc and fpcsrc from rpm's and lazarus by
compiling. Used packages are fpc-2.0.1 and fpcsrc-2.0.1 rpms and
lazarus-0.9.10-0.tar.gz. I have no problem with Mandriva LE2005.

Here is pictures:
Lazarus:

As can be seen, component palette icons are not visible.

Does anybody have same problem?

I would guess that you recompiled your Lazarus for Gtk2. Is that
correct? It is known that the IDE only works on Gtk1.

I use the latest subversion Lazarus (IDE compiled for Gtk1 and LCL for
Gtk2) on Mandriva 2006 without any problems.

Hi Sekel,

QuoteI would guess that you recompiled your Lazarus for Gtk2. Is that
correct?

After installing fpc packages I simply used make in lazarus directory.
If default is Gtk2, then you are right.

How can I do that?

And what about previously compiled programs. For example, PicPrg2
program above was compiled in LE2005, possibly for Gtk1 and result is
bad.

This looks like a gtk theme bug.

if you want to test, try doing this in a console:

export GTK_PATH=
export GTK_RC_FILES=
and then run Lazarus or your program

if it works try setting another theme in your window manager
definitively
