From: ajay paswan Date: 2012-10-18T18:03:54+09:00 Subject: frustrated with ruby install Following: http://www.andrehonsberg.com/article/install-rvm-ubuntu-1204-linux-for-ruby-193 but when I do type rvm | head -1 it says: rvm is /home/user/.rvm/bin/rvm but expected is: rvm is a function, So if, I do: rvm use --default 1.8.7 RVM is not a function, selecting rubies with 'rvm use ...' will not work. You need to change your terminal emulator preferences to allow login shell. Sometimes it is required to use `/bin/bash --login` as the command. Please visit https://rvm.io/integration/gnome-terminal/ for a example. My goal is to install ruby 1.8.7 on ubuntu, actually I crashed previous install so I uninstalled and trying to reinstall,-- am fighting very hard to do it. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
