Well it's not absolutely neccessary, but it's a nice to have...

BTW, on my Win98 SE, AMD 1.2GHz, 256MB Box, the openGL/FXRuby examples
show, er, unexpected behariour:

The FXRuby example "ruby\samples\FXRuby\groupbox.rbw" reacts extremely
sluggishly - if at all.

The openHL example in the same directory gives a segmentation fault:

    c:\ruby\samples\fxruby>ruby glviewer.rb
    glviewer.rb:589: [BUG] Segmentation fault
    ruby 1.6.6 (2001-12-26) [i586-mswin32]
   
    abnormal program termination

I didn't remember this with the "older" 165 installer...


Happy rubying!
