So, I've installed ruby on Ubuntu 6.06, with a few tweaks.

Test:

$ ruby -e 'print "Hello, world\n"'
-bash: ruby: command not found

Install:

$ sudo apt-get install ruby1.8
$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby1.8 /etc/alternatives/
$ sudo ln -s /etc/alternatives/ruby /usr/bin/

Test again:

$ ruby -e 'print "Hello, world\n"'
Hello, world

Woo-hoo, it works!

BTW, there's an awesome ruby tutorial at http://tryruby.hobix.com/
