Any ideas on the built in help, I'm using linux with lazarus 1.0.6 and

/usr/share/lazarus/1.06 is where the components docs etc are installed.
I hope you mean this is the directory where Lazarus is installed (where
the lazarus and startlazarus executables are)
Yes that is correct.
<snip>
HelpEXE :- /usr/share/lazarus/1.0.6/components/chmhelp/lhelp/lhelp
That looks good.
HelpFilesPath :- /usr/share/lazarus/1.0.6/docs/chm/
That looks good. Do you have
fcl.chm lazutils.chm lcl.chm prog.chm ref.chm rtl.chm toc.chm
user.chm in there?
Yes all correct.

As far as I can tell everything seems to be in the correct place and
referenced correctly.
I don't know. You haven't told us your tools/options/help/help options
settings. Following the instructions in the wiki (with everything in the
....chm directory mentioned above), CHM Help Viewer's HelpFilesPath
should be empty.
Likewise the various Help Databases settings should be unchanged from a
default install (mostly empty).
Hope with this you can get it going!

Well it still does not work, I thought it might be a permissions problem
because /home/paul/,config/lhelp had permissions set to root, but even
running lazarus as root didn't solve the problem, F1 will not work.
This is /home/paul/,config/lhelp/ihelp-.conf

Is F1 the only way to access the integrated help?
Why is this so difficult?
Why isn't it automatically installed when Lazarus is installed?
Any other ideas?

frustrated Paul
