[Lazarus] Ide won't

[larrydalton71]

I recently installed linux mint 18.2 on a laptop I use for coding. I then installed lazarus 1.8.2, using fpc 3.04-2_amd64.deb and fpc-src_3.04-2_amd64.deb. Everything seemed to install OJ, but when I start the ide, the Free Pascal icon comes up, then disappears and the compiler doesn't run. I tried completely reinstalling but that didn't help. What ast do I try next?
