Does it mean that you are using testing release (Sarge), 
or just your laptop is for testing? 
In Sarge Mono is in very old version.

I had similar experiences. It's due to building Mono 
--with-ntpl=yes, which causes problems on kernels 2.4 
on i368. The same problem is with MonoDevelop.

You should use packages from unstable. The latest Mono 
(1.0.1) is in unstable branch.
