hey guys u can install ruby 1.8.6 on maemo os 2008 from

http://www.elkins.org/packages/binary/
*ruby-1.8.6.deb - Ruby programing language

i installed it in red pill mode and it got installed perfectly
with no errors
ruby -v works perfectly also i was able to compile code
but the irb is not working
the irb file is installed in
/usr/bin
it was pointing to /usr/local/bin/ruby
i modified it to point to /usr/bin/ruby(as on maemo)
saved it and set the file permissions to 777

but now when i execute irb command
i get this error

Nokia-N800-50-2:~# irb
/usr/bin/irb:10:in `require': no such file to load -- irb (LoadError)
from /usr/bin/irb:10
also tried from the installed directory
Nokia-N800-50-2:~# cd /usr/bin/
Nokia-N800-50-2:/usr/bin# irb
/usr/bin/irb:10:in `require': no such file to load -- irb (LoadError)
from /usr/bin/irb:10
Nokia-N800-50-2:/usr/bin#
