I would look at:
http://github.com/maccman/juggernaut
http://github.com/endtwist/AjaxIM

Here is an example of how to make a simple group chat with the new juggernaut: http://dailyjs.com/2010/09/13/juggernaut/

how well does these work with a ruby server?

should not be very difficult if you read the documentation for juggernaut the requirements are node.js, redis and ruby at least for the new version of juggernaut. ajaxim is based on node.js so if you can run node.js on your server you would be good to go.
