Another thing that may be involved is this: if I uncomment the lines #tk and #tcltklib from ext/Setup the final linking does'nt works: the compiler says that -lX11 can't be found. Should I pheraps run ./configure with some option about paths? Note that uncommenting #gtk does'nt generate any compiling error nor warning. I'm a total newbie in Ruby (and not a Linux guru at all) , so please don't blame me if I'm writing oddities :) Thank you, bye Fabio
