Lyle,

Thanks! That was the problem. Now that I have that package installed I’m up and running.

Topic: FXRuby / Fxruby installation

Lyle,

I’m having a lot of trouble getting the FXRuby gem to compile on Ubuntu Hardy Heron. I have followed the instructions, installing libfox-1.6-dev, after installing Ruby and RubyGems, but the FXRuby gem just doesn’t compile. I have tried removing and reinstalling Ruby altogether through aptitude (and through Synaptic, the GUI package manager), but still have been unsuccessful.

It says “Cannot find -lxrandr”. I do have libxrandr installed (I checked in Synaptic). Is there some way I need to communicate it’s location to gem? Which file does it need to know about?

Thanks!
