Do you get any errors?

Do you have both 1.8.7 and 1.9.2 installed?  If so, maybe you're using two
different versions--add "puts RUBY_VERSION" variable in irb and your rb
file.

My other guess would be that you might need something like EventMachine to
handle asynchronous events, but I would look into the simpler solutions
first.
