I have no idea what you mean by this statement...
What is LXDE and how do I test Lazarus for LXDE?

That happened to be the case since I decided I should get me a more
powerful computer so I installed the latest Mint - Mate in a virtual
machine on my laptop.
In this environment the gtk2 is still selected but the form sizing
issue is not apparent.

Now you are talking mystery again. I do not understand how I could do
this...

I have used svn cook-book style to retrieve a specific tagged revision
of FPC and Lazarus and used make to build them. Apart fromn that I
have no idea how to use svn, which I assume you mean I should do.
