All you have to do is run the lazarus executable from the directory where you compiled it. I have it in my home directory, so launching it from a console can be done with cd lazarus ./lazarus I've added an entry to the KDE menu, which contains the command /home/eric/lazarus/lazarus The advantage of having Lazarus in one's home directory is that there are no permission problems. In order to use Lazarus you need write permission to its files.
