A friend of mine has aske me to put this question up here. He is trying to install A program called Tablesmith (www.mythosa.net, if you're interested) - a utility for role-players. His problem, in his own words, is "I'm doing a Linux install. The only problem I have is that the initializer is asking for .NET v2.0.50727 while the .NET I was able to download is 2.0. Is there a link or a package that includes the updates? Or can the initializer be patched to look for 2.0?" Apparently, Tablesmith installs OK, but when trying to run it, my friend gets a little warning box which disappears when he clicks OK. Any help or ideas very gratefully received. David Shaw
i am surprised that .Net even installs on linux! wow! interesting fact. considering projects like dotgnu and mono. greetings, Chris Am Samstag, den 22.04.2006, 14:00 +0100 schrieb David Shaw:> A friend of mine has aske me to put this question up here.

And - very unfortunately - it doesn't install under Wine. No clue why, someone else might have. Faking a DOTNET installation is easy. Microsoft has a recommended registry key for checking for DOTNET installations of various versions and that's what every program I've come across uses. That won't help you to actually run a DOTNET application, but it will get pesky installers going. Then you can try if your app will run with Mono. Unfortunately it looks like Mono is lacking a great many APIs present in Microsoft's runtime environment, so don't expect too much......> Apparently, Tablesmith installs OK, but when trying to run it, my friend > gets a little warning box which disappears when he clicks OK.Copy/paste the warning here or we won't be able to help. You can use <CTRL><A>, <CTRL><C> to copy contents of Windows message boxes.
did you try to run this using mono. --- David Shaw <djshaw@classicfm.net> a ?crit :> A friend of mine has aske me to put this question up here.
