I know nothing about Mac but under Fedora Linux I had to make a link to satisfy a new "name" of the library:
ln -s libgdiplus.so.0.0.0 libgdiplus.so I suspect the culprit is the installer since I had NO SUCH PROBLEMS under Fedora 7. Now I get runtime errors but the dialog works! ________________________________ > Date: Wed, 2 Jan 2008 09:14:59 -0800 > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: [email protected] > Subject: [Mono-winforms-list] libgdiplus.dylib throws > TypeInitializationException on Mac OS X (even with macpack) > > > I am trying to run a simple "Hello World" WinForms app on Mac OS X using mono > 1.2.6, but I get a TypeInitializationException from (or regarding?) > libgdiplus.dylib.
