You're welcome. If you check mono's homepage, you will see that they have tips about how to get mono through yum as well

Hey there, Thanks, but check this out

I've done what's written here
http://www.go-mono.com/download/fedora-4-x86_64/

Code:
Another way to install updates on your operating system is to use yum. Putting the mono.repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d will allow you to install mono and related packages.
then it didn't find matches... wtf?
Code:
[root@localhost yum.repos.d]# yum install mono
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
livna                     100% |=========================|  951 B    00:00
updates-released          100% |=========================|  951 B    00:00
extras                    100% |=========================| 1.1 kB    00:00
base                      100% |=========================| 1.1 kB    00:00
Reading repository metadata in from local files
primary.xml.gz            100% |=========================| 379 kB    00:02
updates-re: ################################################## 1107/1107
Added 52 new packages, deleted 42 old in 4.17 seconds
Parsing package install arguments
No Match for argument: mono
Nothing to do

Me = SAD

Hmmm, strange. Well, I've never tried mono myself, but maybe, the name is not mono to get it installed. Some suggestions:

Code:
yum install mono-1.1
yum install mono-deps
yum install gtk-sharp-1.0
yum install gtk-sharp-2.0
yum install mono-tools
I've also never used yum, but I use apt-get a lot and used apt-get in redhat a lot. I guess you need to update the repositories when you've edited your yum list with "yum update" too. You did not forget to do that?

<guess>Perhaps only mono-1.1 should be enough and trigger the rest... </guess>

It's very complicated when I compare it to what we worked in school. Is there a chance you know of other compiler?


Thanks.

Perhaps Microsoft is still offering the free beta version of Visual Studio 2005:

With all due respect to the good folks at Mono ... I can't imagine C# would be the language of choice if your target platform is Linux. For precisely the kinds of issues you encountered trying to install Mono (my experiences on SuSE were similar ... but at least I got a "hello world" compiled and running).

If you just want to learn C#, you should really do it with Visual Studio. Unless you don't have a choice.

IMHO .. PSM

You can download the free version of the 32 borland compiler supported under windows . It should help you , It's free with shell commands.
