I am trying to rebuild the IDE after installing new packages and I get this error message repeatedly.

/home/rchurch/.programs/lazarus/0.9.29/lazarus_0929_27548/share/lazarus/ide/lazarus.pp(127,1)

Error: Can't call the resource compiler "/usr/bin/fpcres", switching to external mode

When I got this error before I raised the ulimit, but it doesn't appear to work now.

I was able to fix it after rebooting, and raising the ulimit. I'm not sure whether both or only one of them fixed it.

What did you raise with ulimit?

Is this with fpc 2.4.0 or 2.5.1?
Have you tried fpc 2.5.1?

I was working with 2.5.1 on Ubuntu 8.04, but I am not sure whether the reboot alone or the ulimit increase fixed it. The docs mentioned something about running Linux from a terminal, so after rebooting, I opened a terminal, raised the ulimit started Lazarus from there, rather than from the Gnome menu.
