Yes and no. I noticed that it does attempt to compile C++ applications but by default it doesn't link certain libraries. For example, when using math functions you need to specify -lm yourself.

People please note that this is a very old thread!

gcc and g++ needs to be the same version.

take a look with "gcc --version" and "g++ --version"

Yup, that worked for me too. I had forgotten about that, used to be part of my basic install ritual.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
g++: Depends: g++-4.0 (>= 4.0.3) but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages

I tried to install Visual C#.net, but doesn't work. It gives

Runtime Error!

I tried to install other windows application, it works fine.
This problem occurs only when installing application requires Ms .Net framework.

Please suggest me, how to install MS .NET on UBUNTU Linux.

What do you really want to do?

Are you trying to execute a Windows program on Linux? If yes, then try Wine http://www.winehq.org/

If you want to develop .NET applications on Linux, then try Mono http://www.mono-project.com
