Subject: Ruby, Windows or Rmagick error ???

Hi.

Well i�ve written a little program on my linux machine which uses
my_image = "20061002_122234_No_1.jpg"
Image.read(my_image)

This isn�t really complicated... and it works (at least on my linux machine).
On windows the beahvior ist really strange...
it t works with 
my_image="test.jpg"
but with 
my_image = "20061002_122234_No_1.jpg"
it doesn�t....
really strange is the error with different paths (relative, absolute, with "\\" or with "/"..)
All of them don�t work with the image and all of them produce a sort of file/directory not found. And in the error message it also writes down the file which couldn�t be found. And now the obscure part.
Depending of the part it writes 234_No_1.jpg or 61002_122234_No_1.jpg or something like 2234_No_1.jpg not found.. 

Sure it can�t be found. It�s not even the name of the image ... and the path is gone too ... 
:(

So is there a problem with ruby ? windows ? rmagick ?

I don�t know, otherwise i wouldn�t ask.
I guess there isn�t a "real" ruby problem, otherwise there would be a problem using linux too... 
So is it rmagick ? 
for the same reason there shouldn�t....
Leaves windows ....
But windows can handle such file names....

So there isn�t a problem at all ? 

Since i have this problem there should be a problem in the windows version of ruby or rmagick or in the combination of all three....

Any ideas ?

Thanks
