Try to run with sudo. Whether appimage or regular, it won't run without sudo. Well it will, but you must try a lot of times to make it run. A link to a thread for further examinationThis is a mono bug specific to debian distros except for one. It is related with glibc and kernel version I suppose. As far as I know due to my experience, only Debian based distro I could run SMath without sudo is MXLinux (ahs). If SMath doesn't run even, please run it under a terminal. And post terminal output here, maybe it is a faulty plugin. Regards

Hello,
I created account on this forum only to write that if You install in Ubuntu 22.04:
libmono-cil-dev
libmono-db2-1.0-cil
mono-dbg
mono-devel
mono-tools-devel
then it should work without sudo. This is some bug within mono and installing mono debugging allows it to run apparently.

I am running SMath on my OrangePi-3b arm64 so far so good. Can anyone tell me how to use GTK themes for mono applications. SMath looks ugly

SMath looks ugly Especially if your theme is dark for linux, SMath becomes unusable. Buttons can't be seen, toolbars are too dark, etc. So I edit smathstudio_desktop_mono file as below. Code:#!/bin/sh
HERE="$(dirname "$(readlink -f "${0}")")"
cd "${HERE}"
export MONO_WINFORMS_XIM_STYLE=disabled; GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/Raleigh/gtk-2.0/gtkrc exec mono "${HERE}//Solver.exe" "$@"
I use smath with a light default theme from /usr/share/themes/. WINFORMS option also fixes ubuntu/debian crash. Regards

Thanks Overlord, the thing is that developers should move from MONO to dotnet6/7/8 these are available in all Linux distributions! Recently a popular photo editor Pinta moved from MONO to dotnet8 ...similarly calcpad also did that & is very usable in Linux

If smath window is light themed, it should have ben loaded.
As far as I know, mono2 applications doesn't accept themes designs except colors.
