[Mono-list] Can't Port Winforms App [newbie]

[sgc9812]

The app is actually a dummy app -- something I threw together yesterday to
check how much of the VisualC# WinForms palette could be handled by Mono.  I
just threw in one of every widget my [future] project might need.  My plan
was to then check the Mono port periodically during development, to know
when I "broke" it.  Maybe even workup some sort of "daily build" including
the Mono port.

My problem seems simple [the app fails to execute in Mono because DllImport
is attempting to locate libc and libX11], yet no one else seems to share my
problem, so this "/feels/" like an installation problem.  I'm planning to
uninstall, re-read the setup info, and go thru the initial installation
process again from scratch. 
 
Again, my only install/setup/config/prep activities were:  
    1) Install Visual C# 2010 Express;
    2) Install Mono using the 
http://download.mono-project.com/archive/2.10.8/windows-installer/1/mono-2.10.8-gtksharp-2.12.11-win32-1.exe
Windows Combined Installer .

I performed no other setup or configuration...  No environmental sets... No
path modifications... No app configurations...  Is there any other basic
setup or configuration I could be missing?  Something obvious?
