terasic DE0- nano SoC kit -linux +mono+uart

hi

Im new in the SoC world :)- im an hardware guy - but i have a software question :)

I want to buy the terasic DE0-Nano Development kit. but before i do it i have some questions.

i want to work with Linux - terasic give an linux image on SD Card , my software team want to write there code in C# so they use a tool named "MONO" that enable to run C# on Linux.

1. how i can check if the Linux that i get from terasic support "Mono"?

2. we want to work with 4 modules that connected to the USB port ( vis USB HUB) .The modules work with UART (COM port )- does the Linux that terasic gave have a uart driver ?

thanks

david
