Hey,

I’ve been trying to install auto\_complete for rails 2.0.2 for two  
hours. The most useful message I get is  
script/plugin install  
[http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/plugins/auto\_complete](http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/plugins/auto_complete)  
Plugin not found:  
[“[http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/plugins/auto\_complete](http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/plugins/auto_complete)”]

When I go there, it get a very nice “page not found message”

Any clues?  
Joe

Happy New Year, everyone!

I’m just starting out with Ruby, and learning more is my new year’s  
resolution. Wish me luck! 🙂

Thank you very much, now I know that It was due to this specific gem, I  
just  
change to the old version of ruby (the one that come with synaptic in  
Ubuntu) and I was able to see all my gems but I still having problems  
with  
this specific gem (net-mdns).

Does somebody knows why ‘net-mdns’ don’t work in linux (ubuntu 8.04)??
