Thank you for the reply,
I have followed the 'installing_Help_in_the_IDE document and  F1 still 
does not work.
/usr/share/lazarus/1.06  is where the components docs etc are installed.
/usr/lib64/fpc/2.6.0 is where pascal is installed/
HelpEXE :- /usr/share/lazarus/1.0.6/components/chmhelp/lhelp/lhelp
HelpFilesPath :- /usr/share/lazarus/1.0.6/docs/chm/
fpc docs :- /usr/share/doc/fp-docs/$(FPCVER)

As far as I can tell everything seems to be in the correct place and 
referenced correctly.

Any other ideas?
regards
Paul
