you may just need to set a few environmental variables to
indicate to ruby and gem where to look for your files.
the following is an example for somebody using a bash shell.
your paths and shell may differ -- adjust accordingly.

export RUBYLIB=/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8:/lib/ruby/1.8
export GEM_PATH=/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
export GEM_HOME=/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
