[Mono-devel-list] Can't run monodevelop/monodoc on suse 9

[Tizio Incognito]

Hi folks,
newbie here. I've setted up a linux box running on suse 9, installed red 
carpet (amazing.. I come from Win and never seen a program useful like 
this), subscribed mono and installed the packages i suppose i need to 
start writing that hello world here.

rug pa mono shows a list as follows:

******************************************************************

After installing monodevelop and monodoc I can find new menu items under 
the development menu.
BTW, if i click to lounch, the loading cursor appears for a few seconds, 
than disappear but nothing shows up.

I'm really disoriented because I'm new to this world, sorry if it's a 
stupid question.

TIA.
