I thought all the examples used:  

require 'rubygems'
require_gem 'fxruby'

This is the error i got when i tried installing via gem.  So i built and 
installed from the tarball (FOX 1.2) and that worked fine for me.  Except
the require 'rubygems' method (which i just replace with    require 
'fox'     to get it to work)  gives me the following error.
