So, this problem pretty much persists since i first tried FreePascal
on a linux distro (Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon FYI)
I wrote a pretty basic "Hello World" program, and wasn't able to fix
the problem that persists.
I even double checked that the target OS is set to "Linux for x86-64",
the IDE i use is the console one "fp"
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i program
asdf;begin WriteLn("Hello, world!");end.What is that i'm doing wrong?

In Pascal there are no double quotes for strings, use single quotes
only. But I doubt that this is the reason for the "System not found"
error. Are you sure that your FPC is properly installed?
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i     program
asdf;    begin     WriteLn('Hello, world!');   // <------ single
quotes instead of double quotes    end.

is properly installed. I installed it using 'sudo apt install fpc
lazarus'
EDIT:
I removed the packages and installed the ones from the homepage, now
it works like a charm
