I'm forced to use, besides more recent systems, also an old RH9, kernel 2.4.25 (and all the rest equally old) for compatibility with a number of installed applications, using a modified kernel to provide hard real time, In this platform I can develop and run Lazarus GUI applications smoothly, but I've met a weird problem when trying to work on non LCL applications.

Project -> New -> Program makes the editor windows disappears, and I find no way to make it reappear, except opening another GUI project.

File->New-> Program exhibits most of the times the same behavior, but sometimes the editor windows stays there (with the new program skeleton properly in). Roughly the same problem arises with all the new project types which either don't have a form, or don't show a dialog asking for something.

Moreover if I attempt to open an fpc project (.lpi) the same thing happens most of the times, no editor window. I can open the project inspector, select a file, but when I click "open" nothing happens.

I've been unable to find any pattern for the few times I managed to make it work.

Invoking startlazarus from command line doesn't shed any light. The console output is always the same, whether it works or not.

I understand that my platform is a bit outdated, but could someone point me in the right direction, what to look at, in order to attempt a fix?

Lazarus is the latest svn, but I tried to go back up to 10808 with no change, fpc is 2.0.4.

Thanks,

Giuliano
