Hello Pen, 2010/4/8 Pen Ttt : > pt@pt-laptop:~$ ri Integer#times > /usr/local/ruby/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rdoc/ri/driver.rb:384:in `initialize': > Permission denied - /home/pt/.ri/cache/.doc_dirs (Errno::EACCES) It seems that there are some directory you can't read in ~/.ri. Try sudo chown -R pt home/pt/.ri to recursively regain access to the directories, it should solve at least this issue. Cheers, -- JJ Fleck PCSI1 Lycée Kléber
