[MonoDevelop] Monodevelop exits after splash screen

[monomail at huntington-bradley.com]

I am trying (very hard) to get a working installation of Monodevelop happening
on my box (running Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary)).

I've been reading forums and list posts everywhere I can find them.

I just finished compiling all the latest packages available from the
mono-project.com downloads page.

I ./configure&&make&&make installed (in the following order):  libgdiplus-1.1.7,
mono-1.1.7, gtk-sharp-1.0.10, monodoc-1.0.6, gtk-sharp-1.9.5,
gtksourceview-sharp-2.0-0.10, gecko-sharp-2.0-0.10, and monodevelop=0.7

No errors running ./configure on any source package, Warnings, but no errors
running make on any of the source packages.  Everything except for Monodevelop
seems to run ok.  When I try to start Monodevelop (from the command line), it
quits imediately after displaying the splash screen.  The command line output
is as follows:

2005-06-05 02:08:11,983 [-1210213504] INFO  MonoDevelop.Services.ILoggingService

I would sure appreciate help on this.  Short of switching distros (I'd rather
not) to something that's better supported by the Mono team.  I don't know what
to try next
