I am wondering, is it possible to configure Lazarus to compile a project on

I've been doing Lazarus development on Linux on a quad core amd64 desktop
PC for a while now and it feels comfortable. But I do have a few arm6/7
Raspberry Pi computers with FPC/Lazarus as well.
I successfully use cross-compiling and remote debugging from x86 Linux to
Raspberry Pi. MSEide has project templates for that purpose in
apps/ide/templates/crossarm*.prj, please see README.TXT.

It is probably possible to setup Lazarus to to the same.
Generally works well, provided that the desktop machine's X11 server
fully supports the primitives expected by the target machine's widget set.
Working from memory, I think there's a problem with debugging multiple
threads over SSH, and for that reason I also like to have VNC available.
There's also some versions of Lazarus (which is by no means alone in
this defect) that poll the input devices excessively, and again VNC can
help out there.
