You mean it's still gtk1 right? Have you started Lazarus with
"startlazarus" binary? Have you set everything (not just LCL) to
"clean/rebuild" and have you changed the target (on the right) to gtk2
in the configure build options?

If you use a local copy, you can also try "make clean" and "make
LCL_PLATFORM="gtk2""

gtk1 of course you are right... and yes i tried those things already
.. to no avail
i would  stand a chance to understand this bull if i got a error
message or something but i don't .... u got any idea ?

how did you install Lazarus? If you install lazarus from a rpm package
or a deb package it will stay only writable to the root user.

For rebuilding lazarus it's usually better to download from subversion
(specially if you are testing gtk2), and compile it then.

ok.... i finally got it right...
laarus stored data in my homepath in .lazarus.... and this remained
even when removing (or purging) lazarus via apt.... so i deleted the
data myself, removed all packages and reinstalled from source... voila
...

thanks to all of you... someone should really do a simple install
script for lazarus... with packages needed for gtk2 and so.... i'm not
sure if i can do it (i'm not deep into bash developing)... for all
those neewbies out there (like me)
