[Mono-list] Mono installer and Ubuntu AMD64

[Emil Emilov]

Hi :)
You could get the tarball, compile it and install it yourself. It's not that hard.
Consider this URL:
http://www.mono-project.com/Compiling_Mono

You will also need the ubuntu package "build-essential" i.e. following command:
sudo apt-get install build-essential

taken from Ubunutu Starter Guide (http://ubuntuguide.org/)

Enjoy :)
