    Well, hope your program can run on Wine or Mono. If it can't then you'll have to program it in C++ or some compatible language for Linux.

    Just to clarify, Mono is a Linux framework which supposedly lets you code in .NET 2.0 and 3.0 languages but I've never used it so wouldnt know where to start. I would guess their web site would help you out though: http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page

    Mono, just install it on your Linux box, and open a Terminal. Then type in:
    Mono <path to your application exe>
    Press enter and see what happens
