Kevin, I'm uncertain whether you are still having problems. When we worked
offline the key thing you were not doing was using the wrapper script,
wxnet-run, to execute the samples. 

If you follow the instructions in the manual
(http://wxnet.sourceforge.net/manual/libraries.html) to setup your
development environment -- for example, by doing a make wxnet-install and
adding WXNET_INSTALL_DIR/Bin to your ld.so.conf and doing an ldconfig and
then installing wx.NET.dll to Mono's GAC -- you'll be able to do "mono
wxnetapp.exe" to run an app on YOUR DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM. This would be
especially useful within an IDE and for casual testing of an app.

But in an install package you won't want to pollute the user's /usr/lib with
wxWidgets, wx-c, etc. And likewise I don't think you'll want to install
wx.NET.dll to the GAC. So you'll use the shell script method to have your
app launched.
