[mythtv-users] directv.pl script problem

Hello, I am trying to control a directv D11-100 from the directv.pl script.

I finally got all of the cables and I have tried a program called
satcontrol and it will turn the box on and off but not change the
channel, this tells me that the communication is working.

When I try the directv.pl script located here
http://www.mit.edu/~je18337/directv/directv.pl it gives me the
following error "Can't locate Device/SerialPort.pm".  I have searched
for a module for perl that will install on opensuse 10.1 and have had
no luck.

Any thoughts/assistance would be appreciated.

John
