Mono on Fedora (FC4)

Hi!

I've just switched from XP to Linux and need to get Mono working.
Installation seems ok, but I cannot compile anything at all. I've read here and there that there is a problem with mono on fedora FC4, so I was wondering if anyone has managed to get this combo up and running?

Can you run mcs --help, mcs --help2 or mcs --about?

What happens when you try to compile some "hello.cs" into a Mono .exe?

Have you tried "mcs -v hello.cs"?

A simple Console.Write() works fine actually. But trying something like:

Code:

using System;
using Gtk;
using GtkSharp;

namespace MyWindow
{
	public class CreatedWindow : Window
	{
           .........

I get "Cannot find type 'Window'". I guess I missed something while installing?

It certainly sounds like you're "missing something".

Please:

1. List the Mono/GTK assemblies you have installed
2. Did you install from RPM, or build them yourself?
3. Cut/paste the exact error message (compile error? runtime error? what's the exact msg?)
