I don't know the details about your platform, but SqueezeCenter will usually use the system-installed CPAN modules without any configuration (there are many standard modules it uses in this way, in fact).
I have seen problems because the SqueezeCenter installation includes the GD CPAN module in its installation tree and if this is different to the one you've used to compile your CPAN module then you can get a conflict (I had a bug with my Gentoo ebuild because of this, for example). If that's the solution then the solution is to remove the GD.pm file and subdirectory from under the SqueezeCenter CPAN folder (that's "/usr/share/squeezecenter/CPAN" on Gentoo, but may differ for you), and it should then be happy finding the once from the system's CPAN installation. Failing there are some startup logging options that will tell you what's going on when it's trying to locate CPAN modules - try os.files, os.paths and server in particular. It will then write something helpful into the log files. Stuart trevva wrote: > Ok, so it looks like its a bug.
