First, check for compatibility: Start at http://www.mono-project.com/ Go to Documentation / About Mono. See the "Compatibility" and "Class Status" pages. Then, on linux, go to the mono download page, follow instructions to add a new yum or apt repo. Install mono-complete, and monodevelop. Monodevelop is your linux IDE. It's very nice. Try opening your project and see how much stuff needs to change. In particular, don't expect winforms or wpf to be useful. The GUI will probably need rewrite in GTK#, or you could switch to a cross-platform GUI toolkit such as Eto.Forms, or XWT. _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - Mono-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
