[Mono-dev] Problem trying to start up a WinForms app withProcess

[pablosantosluac]

Hi Miguel,

I'm actually doing the second option, but for some reason it doesn't work. 
It must be something I'm doing wrong, but I don't find out what.

If I replace my app by, let's say, xcalc, it works, but as soon I put my 
winforms app, nothing happens. Environment variables are copied
to the new process, aren't they? Anyway, I've configured both PATH and 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH at .bashrc.
