I'm not sure what this means. Are you talking about logging into your
user account and getting this error before you type any commands?

A complete transcript of your session would be helpful. :)


Here is the error message:

Can't load '/opt/perl/lib/5.8.3/IA64.ARCHREV_0-thread-multi/auto/IO/
IO.so' for module IO: Exec format error at /opt/perl/lib/5.8.3/
IA64.ARCHREV_0-thread-multi/XSLoader.pm line 68.

Can you run anything else with perl or is it just this module giving
you problems?

What happens when you try:

$ perl -MIO -e 0

If that doesn't work, I suggest re-installing perl. You have something
wrong with a core module.
