I just dl'ed and install 1.0.6 as well as the IDE for Linux. WHen using the IDE to try to compile the INET test program the IDE complains it can't find the INET unit even though the path to it and the RTL are in the directories of the IDE. My fpc.cfg file is in /etc and the path to the INET unit is there as well.
Where does the IDE/Compiler look for cfg files ?

Thanks

Afaik the IDE config is independant of the compiler config.

Compiler: fpc.cfg
ide : fp.cfg/fp.ini/fp.dsk

Think of the FPC compiler as a basic "compiling" library.

ppc386, the IDE, and Lazarus are independant programs, using that library for compiling.

For the IDE, setting the compiling paths are set in "options -> Directories -> unit directories" much like -Fu on the command line.
