I think that class was added after qtruby 1.4.7 was released. It's in the kde 
svn version of qtruby:

irb(main):001:0> app = Qt::Application.new(ARGV)
=> #<Qt::Application:0xb7c67930 objectName="irb">
irb(main):002:0> test = Qt::GraphicsSvgItem.new
=> #<Qt::GraphicsSvgItem:0xb7a8a39c objectName="">
irb(main):003:0> w = Qt::Widget.new
=> #<Qt::Widget:0xb7a79344 objectName="", x=0, y=0, width=640, height=480>
irb(main):004:0> painter = Qt::Painter.new(w)
QPainter::begin: Widget painting can only begin as a result of a paintEvent
=> #<Qt::Painter:0xb7a44f40>
irb(main):005:0> painter.fillRect(Qt::Rect.new, Qt::Brush.new)
=> nil

You could add the qgraphicssvgitem.h to smoke/qt/header_list, and regenerate 
your version of the smoke library.

What were you passing to Qt::Painter.fillRect() - was it an incorrect argument 
type?

The help forum on the Rubyforge Korundum site is another place to ask, and it 
doesn't get messed up by spam attacks.
