I'd disagree there, Jim. SUSE tends to be more cutting edge than other distros, at least on the enterprise front. From the OpenSUSE side, only Fedora and in some cases, Ubuntu tend to beat them to the punch on newer updates.

I have used i7 hardware with SUSE for quite some time. I would venture to guess there's either an old version in use or a broken piece of kit.

What is the model of the keyboard, the computer, and what version of SUSE are you using, including the architecture type.

NAME

       Module::Packaged - Report upon packages of CPAN distributions

SYNOPSIS

	 use Module::Packaged;

	 my $p = Module::Packaged->new();
	 my $dists = $p->check('Archive-Tar');
	 # $dists is now:
	 # {
	 # cpan    => '1.08',
	 # debian  => '1.03',
	 # fedora  => '0.22',
	 # freebsd => '1.07',
	 # gentoo  => '1.05',
	 # openbsd => '0.22',
	 # suse    => '0.23',
	 # }

	 # meaning that Archive-Tar is at version 1.08 on CPAN but only at
	 # version 1.07 on FreeBSD, version 1.05 on Gentoo, version 1.03 on
	 # Debian, version 0.23 on SUSE and version 0.22 on OpenBSD

DESCRIPTION

       CPAN consists of distributions. However, CPAN is not an isolated system - distributions are also packaged in other places, such as for
       operating systems. This module reports whether CPAN distributions are packaged for various operating systems, and which version they have.

       Only CPAN, Debian, Fedora (Core 2), FreeBSD, Gentoo, Mandriva (10.1), OpenBSD (3.6) and SUSE (9.2) are currently supported. I want to
       support everything else. Patches are welcome.

       The data is fetched from the net and cached for an hour.

METHODS

   new()
       The new() method is a constructor:

	 my $p = Module::Packaged->new();

   check()
       The check() method returns a hash reference. The keys are various distributions, the values the version number included:

	 my $dists = $p->check('Archive-Tar');
