You must install as root. 'fpc' or 'ppc386' commands should invoke the
compiler.
As far as I know the IDE for Linux is not quite ready... I use VIM to
edit my code. Put this in your '.vimrc'-file:
" Pascal syntax settings
let pascal_vp=1
let pascal_fpc=1
" Set vim-make to run FPC compiler
set makeprg=fpc.sh\ #<.pas
'fpc.sh' is my own shellscript:
#!/bin/bash
#mydef="DEBUG"
mydef="RELEASE"
ppc386 -d$mydef \
-FE/home/arne/bin \
FU/home/arne/bin/Units \
Fu/home/arne/bin/Units \
$*
Then I know where my executables and object files goes.

I should guess so (crosscompiling is also possible, but I've never tried to
set up fpc to do so).
