Is this a bug or should I do further troubleshooting? I could start small and work up, but I thought, "Why not go for the gusto?" This looks like it might be an installation problem, but as a newbie, I am not sure.
I ran a simple WindowForms VB application written in VB.NET and got the following exception: Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type initializer for System.Drawing.GDIPlus ---> System.DllNotFoundException: gdiplus.dll in <0x00053> (wrapper managed-to-native) System.Drawing.GDIPlus:GdiplusStartup (ulong&,System.Drawing.GdiplusStartupInput&,System.Drawing.GdiplusStartu pOutput&) in <0x00068> System.Drawing.GDIPlus:.cctor () --- End of inner exception stack trace --- in (unmanaged) System.Drawing.GDIPlus:GdipCreateFontFromHfont (intptr,intptr&,System.Drawing.LOGFONTA&) in <0x000c7> System.Drawing.Font:FromHfont (intptr) in <0x00018> System.Windows.Forms.Control:get_DefaultFont () in <0x001c1> System.Windows.Forms.Control:.ctor () in <0x0000e> System.Windows.Forms.ScrollableControl:.ctor () in <0x0000a> System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl:.ctor () in <0x00016> System.Windows.Forms.Form:.ctor () in <0x0000a> Namer.Form1:.ctor () in <0x0004f> (wrapper remoting-invoke-with-check) Namer.Form1:.ctor () in <0x0001b> Namer.Form1:Main () I have the following RPMs installed: cairo-0.1.22-0.ximian.6.2.i386.rpm gal-0.23-1.ximian.6.6.i386.rpm gtk-sharp-0.91.1-0.ximian.6.0.i386.rpm icu-2.6.1-1.ximian.6.5.i386.rpm libgal2.0_6-1.99.11-0.ximian.6.1.i386.rpm libgdiplus-0.3-0.ximian.6.1.i386.rpm libgtkhtml3.0_4-3.0.10-0.ximian.6.1.i386.rpm libicu26-2.6.1-1.ximian.6.5.i386.rpm libicu-devel-2.6.1-1.ximian.6.5.i386.rpm libpixman-0.1.1-0.ximian.6.0.i386.rpm mono-basic-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-core-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-data-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm monodoc-0.15-0.ximian.6.1.i386.rpm mono-drawing-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-ms-enterprise-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-ms-extras-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-posix-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-preview-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-remoting-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-web-forms-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-web-services-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-window-forms-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm mono-ziplib-0.91-0.ximian.6.3.i386.rpm wine-20040408-1rh9winehq.i386.rpm winelib-0.2-0.ximian.6.2.i386.rpm J.
