Hi Keith, In general, a good approach is to replace your personal configuration file with an absolutely bare-bones file -- which only contains the "official" recommended configuration for org-mode and org-babel: http://orgmode.org/manual/Installation.html#Installation http://orgmode.org/manual/Activation.html#Activation http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/org-babel.php#getting-started Presumably you have installed org-mode yourself, rather than using the version that comes with emacs (otherwise you would not have org-babel), so minimally that would be something like this: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- (add-to-list 'load-path "/your/location/of/org-mode/lisp") (require 'org-install) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org\\'" . org-mode)) (global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link) (global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda) (global-set-key "\C-cb" 'org-iswitchb) (add-to-list 'load-path "/your/location/of/org-mode/contrib/lisp") (require 'org-babel-init) (require 'org-babel-ruby) ;; requires ruby, irb, ruby-mode, and inf-ruby (require 'org-babel-python) ;; requires python, and python-mode --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- With a configuration like this, org-babel should not interact badly with remember mode. So if you're still seeing this problem, please report back, telling us *exactly* what steps you did, in addition to operating system, org-mode version, emacs version. Error messages in emacs tend to get copied to a buffer called *Messages*, so that's a convenient place to retrieve the exact error message from -- perhaps you could send the last few lines from there. If you don't see the problem then you can add your personal config back in incrementally until something breaks. For the problem with ruby, could you send a minimal file containing a ruby block with which you have a problem? Have you definitely got the various ruby dependencies installed (ruby, irb, inf-ruby.el, ruby-mode.el). What operating system and version of org?
