Under linux, the splash dialog stays on top of everything, on all
desktops. It’s especially bad the first time, when it pops up a little
dialog box asking if I want to install various gems, that appears
behind and completely hidden by the splash dialog. This happened
both on arch-linux/gnome and ubuntu/fluxbox, so it’s not a window
manager issue.
