I think I had FXRuby compiled right, but anyway I tried again
I did a  ruby install.rb clean
and tried to compile again  with the options described in
the URL you provided.

That command lines actually fail, the install.rb script
provided with FXRuby 1.0.20 **doesn't** provide that
documented config parameters.

What I did was, adding /usr/local/lib and my fxscintilla/include
directory to my PATH, so I solved the compilation problem
easily.

While compiling, the script acknowledges it has found
the necesary libs in the right directories.

Compiled the whole thing again... installed,
and started FreeRIDE.... still the same problem,
the source_parser fails to load.

You are right about one thing, the FXScintilla component
is not working.
When I try to run from the FXRuby examples directory:

address@hidden examples]# ruby scintilla-test.rb
scintilla-test.rb:31:in `initialize': wrong # of arguments(4 for 0) 
(ArgumentError)
       from scintilla-test.rb:31:in `new'
       from scintilla-test.rb:31:in `initialize'
       from scintilla-test.rb:74:in `new'
       from scintilla-test.rb:74

As rpms wouldn't work for me, I tried compiling
everything from source.

Platform linux-i586
Ruby 1.6.8  2002-12-24
FXRuby 1.0.20
Fox Toolkit 1.0.18
FXScintilla 1.49.1

Any incompatibility in this combination ?

thanks,
