Problem with Mono and .exe file
- by Vere Nicolson
I have purchased a piece of software to configure programable radio control transmitters. It says it will run on Linux, see below:
Digital Radio runs on: Microsoft Windows 2000/2003/XP Microsoft
Windows Vista/Seven/2008, Linux Ubuntu or a distribution with Mono, 32
or 64 bit, also in a virtual machine.
Linux requires the Mono package installed, with also the Visual Basic
2005 runtime library. The Linux version is the same executable file
of the Windows platform, and can be execute using Mono. You don't need
Wine. All the tests have been done on Ubuntu Desktop 10.10
I have tried for weeks to get the drivers for the cable to work in XP or Win7 and I admit defeat.
It looks like Ubuntu can run the cable effortlessly but now I can't get the software going.
Tried to run in Ubuntu 10.04 with mono, GUI failed and I got the following message
in terminal.
$ mono ~/Desktop/GigRadioLinux/DigitalRadio/DigitalRadio.exe
The entry point method could not be loaded
Windows installation requires using a 30 odd character Passkey and a 4.24k text file as a "license" to be entered during running of the exe file.
Can someone tell me how I enter the passkey and license into terminal, or is that not my primary problem? I don't understand "entry point method". Tried Wine and that didn't work either.
The developer responded to my earlier emails re the cable drivers,
but hasn't replied to questions regarding this.
If I have left out anything important let me know and I will try to supply more information.
