A preview of the linux version is out! I’m waiting for feedbacks on it.

I’ve tried to use gecko.WebControl on Mono under Ubuntu Linux and I kept on getting:

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: An exception was thrown by the type initializer for Gecko.WebControl ---> System.DllNotFoundException: /usr/lib/firefox/libgtkembedmoz.so

That’s why even if the /usr/lib/firefox/libgtkembedmoz.so library is there is not visible to the LD_PATH.
