...hey Z, thanx for the reply. 'gem cleanup' does work, but when I try 
'gem install rails' I get the zlib error below. I can't seem to install 
any gems due to the zlib problem. I looked into rvm, but I can't see to 
get that installed. I am using Fedora, so I used yum to install rvm, but 
can't seem to get that working either. rvm doesn't seem to be in my 
path, and I can find an executable for it in the .rvm folder. I'm going 
to continue working on this, and will post back when I finally figure it 
out. Thanx!

[r...@dhcp226-12 .rvm]# gem update rails
ERROR:  Loading command: update (LoadError)
    no such file to load -- zlib
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (NameError)
    uninitialized constant Gem::Commands::UpdateCommand
