Just one other idea, you should certainly double-check the Perl installtion (if you have not already done so) especially the stage where you set-up the symbolic link to the version 5.8.5 perl interpreter you have installed. The section from www.fieldnetworks.com (page 3) to review again is this:
-----> You now have Perl 5.8.5 installed...well almost. SlimServer expects to see Perl installed in /usr/bin/, but Perl 5.8.5 was packaged to install in /usr/local/bin (probably to allow installation of 5.8.x in addition to older installations of Perl). One solution would be to edit the main SlimServer program file (slimserver.pl) to tell it to look in a different place for Perl. However, if you do that, you will have to remember to do it again each time you upgrade SlimServer. A better approach is to divert SlimServer from /usr/bin to your Perl installation in /usr/local/bin by creating a symbolic link (similar to a Windows shortcut): "ln -s /usr/local/bin/perl /usr/bin/perl" (i.e., the file called /usr/bin/perl will point to /usr/local/bin/perl).
