Well, I probably shouldn't have hit the list first, but I was lazy. Anyhoo, I
found out what the problem was via these links:

It was kind of a pain, but I got it. It needed:
gtk-sharp-devel
mono-devel

Now I just have to figure out how to start csboard. The INSTALL directions
are terrible as usual. I don't want to install it as root. I just want to
run it as a user.
