MongoDB Ruby Driver Issue

I am on Ubuntu and I did

install gem mongo

who reported

Successfully installed bson-1.0
Successfully installed mongo-1.0
2 gems installed

I started mongod

Now I connected to the gmon mongo directory and tried

> ruby examples/simple.rb

and I get the error

./examples/../lib/mongo.rb:31:in `require': no such file to load -- bson (LoadError)
    from ./examples/../lib/mongo.rb:31
    from examples/simple.rb:3:in `require'
    from examples/simple.rb:3

which I can't figure out about since the bson gem is installed

> gem list
*** LOCAL GEMS ***

bson (1.0)
bson_ext (1.0)
mongo (1.0)
rack (1.1.0)
sinatra (1.0)

Any suggestions what is here?

The example script does not require rubygems, which means bson will not be in your download path. If you add

require 'rubygems'


before the script starts, I believe it will work.
