Unless you've specified where to install mono to in the autogen.sh
script, it will be in /usr/local/ rather than /usr. Just type mono and
see what happens.

libgdiplus shouldn't depend on Cairo (from memory). If it does, take a
stroll over to the cairo website and grab a copy of both cairo and
libpixman. Compile libpixman, then cairo and then libgdiplus.

TTFN
