We tend to use CentOS (or RHEL if the customer requires a high SLA). 
It's got Ruby 1.8.5 and then we install RubyGems from source (I think 
the packaged RubyGems version is 0.9 still). Nice thing is that all 
major third-party software is guaranteed to work with RHEL (and thus 
CentOS), that it doesn't require forced upgrade and has a long support 
cycle. And if you're into Xen, well than that's got some amazing backing 
too.

Out of the box it comes with PostgreSQL 8.1 which incidentally is our 
database server of choice. It's fast (though it requires tuning to get 
there), got excellent ACID properties and has never failed on us even 
with large datasets. If so required it can do synchronous replication 
and parallelization too.

For specialty cases we set up JRuby or hand-compile Ruby 1.8.6.
