Subject: Some starting issues

First off im on the latest/updated version of Mac OSX, on a macbook. I
followed a tutorial..

http://hivelogic.com/articles/2005/12/ruby_rails_lighttpd_mysql_tiger

And then followed the updated one as well and still get issues, i cant
seem to get gem to install correctly? And or install correctly.

I have sort of pin pointed the issue down, i get an error like this each
time i attempt to use gem.

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.0/rubygems/package.rb:386:in
`alias_method': undefined method `is_file' for class
`Gem::Package::TarReader::Entry' (NameError)

`manage_gems'
  from gem_prelude.rb:182:in `method_missing'
  from /usr/local/bin/gem:10:in `<main>'


I notice it is looking to point to /1.9.0/ but when i browse to that
folder i have 1.8. Is there any way to completely remove these installs?
OR how can I ensure my install goes smooth so I can begin learning...
