It works!

Thank you "user", you were absolutely right. I changed gtk2 to "Raleigh" and now PB runs as user and not only as root.

I just want to remind, that I had to reinstall OpenSuse 12.3 out of the box after I messed my computer and had to reinstall Windows-XP and then OpenSuse. Obviously ...

Hello,

The Purebasic is loading splashscreen is still open.Is this what you observe too?

That´s exactly what I observe. It never stops, I have to take the taskmanager to kill purebasic. It´s quite strange. PB can be started as root, though I am the "owner" of PB and the group is "users" and all ...

Hallo Gerd,

no, I didn´t install PB as root. And I checked all the permissions and ownership of the IDE, Compiler and all of PB-folders. I even re-installed PB 5.2 LTS and 5.11, but it was all in vain. I did this before I discovered that the IDE runs as root. My gut feeling is, that something else ...

Hallo,

further progress: The IDE can be started when using a shell in supervisor mode! Then it doesn´t freeze and runs fine. But how can I start it as a normal user? I have been checking the permissions of purebasic and pb-folder.

That is not very comfortable. I can edit the sourcefiles with i.e. kwrite and then compile them with the compiler started from a shell. Or I can ...

Hallo Gerd,

I´m devasted! You are right and I overlooked such a simple matter. I just didn´t notice that the permissions were lost on the back-up files. I don´t know why that happened. But all the files I restored from the usb-disk don´t have the executable flag. Perhaps these flags were lost since ...

Hallo Gerd,

one of the first things I checked was whether I installed either Opensuse 12.3 or PB in a 64 bit version. But that wasn´ t the case. Both are installed in 32 bit. I use OpenSuse and PB for years now. I updated OpenSuse several times (or I installed it from the scratch as I did with ...

Hallo,

after a computer crash I hat to install OpenSuse 12.3 (and Windows XP) anew. Now I have a computer with both OS nearly a "virgin". I installed PB 5.2 LTS, but it doesn´ t work. Checkinstall.sh tells me, everything seems to be o.k. When starting the IDE, it opens, but never stops starting ...
