Manually Installing Mono

Greetings,

After rebuilding my Linxu PC, I found an easier way to install the updated version of Mono, so try this way instead of "Compiling Mono."

Go to the Mono download page at...
http://www.mono-project.com/Downloads

Scroll to the bottom where it says, "Linux Installer for x86". Click and download the stable version - currently Mono 1.2.2.1.

Now open the Konsole and type...

chmod +x mono-1.1.17.1_2-installer.bin
sudo ./mono-1.1.17.1_2-installer.bin

Enter your password and follow the default prompts on the screen. Once your done, reboot.

After your reboot, go to the Konsole and enter the following to make sure it worked...

mono --version

You should see...

Mono JIT compiler version 1.2.2.1, (C) 2002-2006 Novell, Inc and Contributors. www.mono-project.com
TLS: normal
GC: Included Boehm (with typed GC)
