Updating Lazarus from Ubuntu is a little difficult (if you're new to 
Linux like me) since the Ubuntu Software Center is set up to install the 
older Lazarus version using FPC2.4.4.

That said, my first step would be to try reloading the older Lazarus 
with Ubunto (uninstall everything first, then reinstall) and see if the 
problems go away.  (If you've installed a lot of Lazarus packages, that 
is not going to be fun.  But maybe some of your components are misbehaving?)

But that's just my 2 cents worth -- I'm FOR SURE no expert.
