Another possible alternative is DotGNU, although as far as I'm aware, DotGNU is much less feature-complete than Mono.

If it doesn't work on Mono, you're probably out of luck. The program likely has dependencies on Windows-specific libraries :(

I agree with CentralDogma, I don't know any other realistic option besides mono. But it's not completely compatible with ms .NET it's always some features behind. Especially if you go outside the core language/framework features. Show the error, we might be able to help you

im having problems with the windows forms :/

What problems? Btw even though there's an implementation of Windows Forms in Mono, it kinda sucks and it isn't what you should be using if you want a good-looking application on Linux. GTK# is a popular choice there.

Not sure what you are doing. I recompiled a bunch of my C# apps (written on windows with visual studio 2010) in linux under mono. There was a couple issues (more with dynamic forms), but for the most part it worked no problem.

Use the built in GTK style forms if you want to do something fresh. Otherwise just make the form look nice in Windows, copy the code over, recompile and it should be good. That's what I did, and it worked fine. Didn't have to do WINE anything. Just ran the app via cli as: mono <myfile>

I had to write a program in C# for personal use, so I decided to run it in mono on Arch (with 0 modifications) here's the result to show I am not talking out of my behind :

this is running on a dual monitor, so both are open at the same time. Yes theres a coupel visual differences, but yea.. 100% winforms no GTK.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By WaltC · Posted

      All it does is use the CPU more efficiently during boot to speed up boot times. That's it. Yawn....

      It's not a one or the other kind of thing. Software should run efficiently, and the operating system should appropriately manage the CPU clocks. You could have the best most optimized software on earth, and it will still run faster if the CPU does a better job of boosting as needed. All this is doing is pre-boosting the CPU based on user actions, instead of waiting for the normal detection mechanism to kick in. If the OS knows it is about to need more CPU, why shouldn't it use that knowledge? It's the same idea of downshifting before passing someone, instead of just burying your foot into the peddle and waiting for the transmission to figure out what you want to do.

      There really isn't anything magical about the low latency profile, other OS's do this as well. All they're doing is using your CPUs boost clock options in a more smarter way.

      So we shouldn't have the option because of people using their laptops on battery? OK? LOL
