Hi ho :-),

we have a problem using gtkmozembed on Windows. The following software  
is installed now:

- Ruby
- GTK+ 2.8 (gimp works)
- Ruby-Gnome2

Did we missed anything?

irb(main):001:0\> require ‘gtk2’  
=\> true

irb(main):002:0\> require ‘gtkmozembed’  
LoadError: no such file to load – gtkmozembed  
from  
C:/Tools/Development/ruby/lib/ruby/site\_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom\_re  
quire.rb:27:in `gem_original_require' from C:/Tools/Development/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_re quire.rb:27:in`require’  
from (irb):1

Thanks,  
Patrick

Ruby-GNOME2 on Win32 doesn’t support gtkmozembed.  
#Did you read README\_win32.txt ?
