Thanks, I downloaded the x64 tar file instead and extracted it in parallel to the i386 one in the Downloads directory, then entered the dir and commanded: sudo sh install.sh And it worked fine. FPC is now the x64 version. Then I returned to the Lazarus folder where I had checked out lazarus_1_6_RC1 and issued make bigide. Now there were some warnings like this: /usr/bin/ld: warning: ../link.res contains output sections; did you forget -T? But it did finish without errors. When I type in ./startlazarus on the command line Lazarus seems to start up OK, but then it displays the "Configure Lazarus IDE" dialog box where it asks for the path to fpc sources... But I have no idea where the sources were placed by the "very big with everything" file I downloaded to install fpc x64 version... I assume the install.sh script has put the sources somewhere on the disk, for example below /usr/local, but I am not Linux versed enough to know how to find the exact location. Could someone here please tell me where? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
