title: installing gems using rvm
body: <p>When trying to install gems using rvm i get this error</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ rvm gem install sproutcore
  ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES)
  Permission denied - /home/tee/.gem/specs
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but it says on the rvm site that you should not use sudo so I'm not sure whats wrong with my setup</p>
  
  <p>when i type $GEM_HOME it shows that the directory is pointing to the rvm dir</p>
  
  <pre><code>$GEM_HOME
  bash: /home/tee/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p302: is a directory
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?</p>
