Ruby is able to find libraries installed via RubyGems only after the 
rubygem library is loaded.  You can accomplish in several ways, 
including setting an environment variable (RUBYOPT=rubygems), including 
-rubygems on your ruby command line, or even putting a 'require 
"rubygems"' in your source code.  See 
http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/3#page70 for details.
