Hi -- well, that''s what I''m trying to do. Does anyone know what the best way to do it is?

Hi, I''ve been doing most of my initial playing with rails on a windows system - but wish to switch to a dedicated linux box for this. Are there any particular distro''s to avoid / recommend.

Hey all, I just upgraded rails to 1.1.2, and form_remote_upload now prevents my application.rhtml layout from being processed. I''m not sure if the problem lies with v 1.1.2, or if upgrading the gems screwed stuff up. Anybody have any ideas?

When using link_to_remote, I''d like to pass along some auxiliary data in the request. It''s a hash of dynamic data that can change with each request. But I get an error when rails trying to "stringify" the hash. For the regular link_to, it works because it turns the hash into a regular GET-like query string. I''m expecting to be able to get my hash as
