[Mono-winforms-list] Re: [Mono-list] Porting Windows Application

[Peter Dennis Bartok]

The error you're posting now is a different one than the first one. If you 
read it, you will see it tells you that it cannot find the libX11 library. 
My guess would be that you are missing the x11-devel rpm. Try using yast or 
red-carpet to install it, or, if you are familiar enough with Linux, you can 
also just create a symbolic link for libX11.so; for example, on my system it 
would be: "ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.2 /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so"

Cheers,
  Peter
