Short answer = No.

You could try installing mono though which is an open-source development environment for C#

In a terminal window (System menu, Accessories) , run the following

sudo apt-get monodevelop

That should pull in all the dependencies you require.

Hello wasim:

To install monodevelop

you need to have extra repositories enabled..
To enable all the software repositories do ref this link..

http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/sources

after getting all the required repositories enabled

Type the following command in a terminal (applications -> accessories -> terminal)

sudo aptitude install monodevelop

Visual Studio 2005 won't run on wine so if you absolutely need it your only way is to use a virtual machine. (I like Virtual box)

Hope mono will do it for you know.

Can you help with this problem?
