I have the same behaviour, but only in trunk version. I suggest file the bug on rubyforge (http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?atid=1698&group_id=426&func=browse , first check if somone already did it) and use version tagged as v1_9_0_0 (revision 14711). It should work. -- Radosw Bu„Šat http://radarek.jogger.pl - m blog
