As a step towards characterizing ID-groups (i.e., groups G such that, for every ring R without zero-divisors, the group ring RG has no zero-divisors), Rudin and Schneider defined Ω-groups, a possibly wider class than that of right-orderable groups, and proved that if every non-trivial finitely generated subgroup of a group G has a non-trivial H-group as an epimorphic image, then G is an ID-group. We prove that such groups are even Ω-groups and obtain the analogous result for right-orderable groups.
