I have a PC which seems to have some strange feature whereby versions of
the Linux kernel newer than 2.6.22.19 will give clusters of NMIs because
it thinks my CPU is in some strange mode (so the error message tells
me). Mandriva's tech support have given up on the problem, and told me
to flag it as a kernel bug, which I've done, but it means that my
planned upgrade is a non-starter, and I'm locked into Mandriva 2008.0
(even 2008.1 will cause the problem). I tried the latest version of Mint
as an alternative, but the same problem occurs.
So, a simple question. Does anyone know what would be the latest version
of Lazarus and Free Pascal that I can run? Yes, there *is* a limit - for
example, I tried to install WINE, and couldn't do so without the
installer wanted to wipe out half of my base KDE setup as part of the
upgrade. :( Trying to install the latest Lazarus caused the same type of
problem.
Installing fpc from the tar.gz has low dependencies.
Then you can compile Lazarus from source. If you have gtk 2.8 or higher
that should work.
