Rails - Mar 2006 - how to render_component in global layout

Hello,
i have one layout file for all controllers. I would like to have news 
list on each page. So, i put <%= render_component :controller =>
"news",
:action => "list" %> , to my layout file. But this
doesn''t work at all.
I get error "Application could not be started.. ".
If I put render_component to some view file say 
"views/static/index.rhtml", then it works.

How can it be ? Do I miss something? I''m newby to rails and ruby :),
but
I like it much.

Please help :)
