I’m on Macs and I found it pretty easy to set up.  I remember in the beginning 
some version hell with the various Gems but that seems to have settled down for 
me.

Maybe I can install a Ubuntu on Parallels on the Mac and see if we can guide 
you through this (assuming I can get it to work on Ubuntu).

What version of Ubuntu are you working with?
