I tried everything from the windows build scripts to the www.nullenvoid.com/wiki intro how to manually compile mono. To just trying to figure out the error msgs myself. I am getting problems like GCC hanging in monoburg.c, but mostly just pkgconfig not finding libraries. I am desperate now. Does anyone have a built mono install which includes the dll's and libraries needed for embedding mono and wants to send it over? Or what if someone smart would just put the dll's into the windows installer, wouldn¹t that be like real cute.

RE: [Mono-list] New web site up
I really, really like the new look site. Comments: - the right menu on the front page looks very odd using opera (7.51) on Win XP (sp1). The Menu title is ok, but the contents beneath it seem to be shifted ~30px to the left. - digging a bit deeper, on all pages, the class=head specification causes this visual shift to the left - again using opera/xp, on http://www.mono-project.com/using/runningfirstmonoapp.html the numbers for the steps appear much too close to the vertical line. The same goes for the bulleted lists, like those on http://www.mono-project.com/contributing/testing.html for e.g. - on http://www.mono-project.com/downloads/index.html the rendering of the download links is completey wrong. It's difficult to expplain, but for e.g. it looks like: Source Code no Runtime 0.95 no Class Libraries and C# Compiler 0.95 diplus 0.8 elib 0.3 noDoc 0.16 web server 0.14 che Mono module 0.10 Red Hat 9.0/x86 kages Fedora Core 1/x86 kages For YUM repository ... etc ...

RE: [Mono-list] Is it Mono safe?
I think one of the greatest barriers to adoption of mono by influential developers will always be the MS issue. Miguel has explained the legal situation over and over, but there are some linux users who will argue over the smallest detail wherever MS is concerned with a technology. It is unfortunate that the community will negate the fantastic success of the mono development guys through FUD and miscommunication. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Melinda Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 6:40 AM To: Mono List Subject: [Mono-list] Is it Mono safe?

RE: [Mono-list] vb.net applications on linux
As far as I'm aware the VB.Net provision under mono is far from being production stable. I would therefore suggest you migrate the application to an alternate server if you wish to continue with the linux migration. With regards the code conversion, there are many tools available on the web to convert code, however the reliability of the code produced is always going to be questionable. Try, for example, http://developerfusion.com/utilities/convertvbtocsharp.aspx Regards, Jon Cooper -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 10, 2004 1:17 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Mono-list] vb.net applications on linux I'm planning to migrating a server from windows to linux.

I know the System.Environment.OSVersion property is hard coded to 5.1.2600.0 (which PNET have copied) but I don't have a complete understanding of why this is. I was thinking that some OSes like GNU/Linux don't have definitive version numbers (although I guess the kernel build gets close), but since a number of OSes do have definitive version numbers, and I right in assuming the value might be retrieved from an internal call in due course?
