I'm a newbie Ubuntu user. I'm using Ubuntu's latest version (11.04) . I'm a GPRO player and there is an application, GPRO Organiser . THis application for Windows and needs .NET Frameworks.

But some player, using GPRO Organiser on Ubuntu with Wine and Mono. So i installed Wine and Mono and then install Organiser with Wine. Now i can see GPRO Organiser in application list but it's not opening. I'm clicking it but nothing happened. Maybe i couldn't install MONO, properly.

I'm a newbie Ubuntu user, because of this can you explain me step by step what should i do ?

Thank you.

NOTE : QUESTION EDITED AFTER @Aukik's ANSWER

  • Open your home folder and press Ctrl + H and delete the .wine folder .

  • Now press Ctrl + Alt + T and paste winetricks dotnet20 and press enter .

  • It will take some time and download .net 2.0 framework .

  • Now Install the GPRO Organiser .

Note - if it doesn't work

  • Open dash ( the top-left button ) search for "Browse c:" and run browse c: drive .

  • Now go to program files and find the .exe that runs the gpro organiser.

  • Press Ctrl + Alt + T,a terminal window will open .

  • Drag that exe file to the terminal window and press enter .

  • Now copy the text on the terminal window and add it to your question .

@Eray it install .net framework which the application requires to work. – Alaukik May 12 '11 at 18:33
But i was installed mono . Mono isn't a .net framework alternative ? – Eray May 12 '11 at 18:34
@Eray it is but mono is not fully compatible with applications written for .net . – Alaukik May 12 '11 at 18:40
