OK, I found the file, in which one can change the debugger listen port
(I'm not at home currently, so I don't know the name anymore). I
changed it to 1098, and the debugger was listening now on port 1098,
BUT did not work anymore at all ;-)

I'll try some more and post any news...
Too bad, I really started liking eclipse for ruby development, the
debug feature is a must, if you are searching for hidden errors or
wrong expected expression results...
