What modules? Some are windows specific and as such will not compile in
linux. Other than that, perl isn't platform dependant. You can always try
compiling perl from scratch to see if that helps.
Did you do a "install bundle:CPAN" inside cpan to update it? Also, you may
try exiting cpan then going back in and trying to install modules again that
fail. I've noticed that sometimes that is necessary as more modules are
installed in a session, for whatever reason.
One last unrelated note. You might consider going with a more stable linux
platform. If you prefer redhat, CentOS, for all intensive purposes, is a
mirror of redhat's enterprise product. Because of that it is very stable.
Fedora is more of redhat's development platform in that while it is
considered mostly stable, much of the enterprise product's changes are
implemented there first and then added into the enterprise product once any
bugs are worked out.
If you do choose CentOS, you'll need to compile and install version 5.10.x
of perl as it comes with 5.8. You'll want to leave both on the system but
'disable' version 5.8 and prevent it from auto updating. If you go that
route I have a quick how to I can shoot you.
