is this a simple hello world program? or are you using more complex classes?

if it is a simple program then it should definately run on mono.

for example:

using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
	class Class1
	{
		[STAThread]
		static void Main(string[] args)
		{
			Console.WriteLine("Hello World");
			Console.ReadLine();
		}
	}
}

if you compile that on windows, and the executable will not run in mono, then your installation probably isn't good.

as far as compilling, i could never get the mono compiler to work right.
