Thanks SA! :)

However, going there directly is a bad way (I almost regret I voted 5 now, but it's OK :-).) Please see my answer, for a right way.

You got an answer in Solution 1, but this is not a really right way with Ubuntu. You need to go for installation manager (like Synaptic, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synaptic_%28software%29[^]) and search for Mono. If you want to do development, I would recommend to start with MonoDevelop (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MonoDevelop[^], http://monodevelop.com/[^]). In this way, MonoDevelop will be installed with all dependencies, and with Mono, of course.

Thank you, Espen.
As I install Mono on each Linux box I can reach for, I kinda know what to do... :-)
