Add compiling/building documentation for Windows and Linux

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
some kind of more elaborate documentation about compiling openhardwaremonitor 
on linux, which version of mono is required, how to compile it and so on.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
latest from svn, Ubuntu 11.04 x86

Please provide any additional information below.

Please attach a Report created with "File / Save Report...".

Compiling on Linux is pretty easy. You will need a complete mono installation 
with mono-winforms and monodevelop (usually you can use the packages from your 
distro). Then you should be able to open the solution file from the SVN in 
monodevelop and hit the build button. Then the library and exe should be built 
completely. The versions are not very critical, the packages from the current 
stable Debian version should be ok for example. I will add a detailed build 
guide for Windows (Visual Studio or MonoDevelop) and Linux on the project site.

A build guide would be much appreciated, I've been looking for something to get 
me started.

I have installed mono but to no avail. When I hit build it build Windows .exe 
and .dll files? How can I build a linux elf and lib file?

The .exe and .dll files are .NET/Mono binaries and have nothing in common with 
native Windows binaries (except for the name). You can run them on Linux (or 
Windows) with "mono OpenHardwareMonitor.exe".

It gives me error: System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Directory 
'/sys/class/hwmon' not found. It this a kernel driver?

That is the sysfs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sysfs) of the hwmon/lm-sensors 
(http://www.lm-sensors.org/) kernel driver. I guess I (wrongly) assumed that 
this directory always exists. I guess this should be fixed in the OHM source. 
As a workaround you can install/load one of the lm-sensors drivers. On Linux 
the OHM tries to read many of the values from lm-sensors (if present).

ok, program compiled with MonoDevelop.
I can't got cpus temp.

There is only one open issue:

Error loading UIA bridge (UiaDbusBridge, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,

in my system there are:
$ dpkg -l | grep uia

                          all          Implementations of members and

It appear when i launch recompiled binary, it work, from gui the cpu temp is 
missing
