Type:

  ldd /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.6/i686-linux/mysql.so 

Are there any "=> not found" entries?

If yes, put the line:

  export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/pack/mysql/lib/mysql

in you .profile file, or recompile ruby/mysql with a --rpath option in the makefile (specifying
the directories of shared libraries). 

Regards,

  Michael
