Fabien Tassin <[email protected]>NOTES
This module was formerly called File::Df. It has been renamed into Filesys::DiskSpace. It could have be Filesys::Df but unfortunatly another module created in the meantime uses this name.Tested with Perl 5.003 under these systems :
- Solaris 2.[4/5] - SunOS 4.1.[2/3/4] - HP-UX 9.05, 10.[1/20] (see below) - OSF1 3.2, 4.0 - Linux 2.0.*, 2.2.*
Note for HP-UX users :
if you obtain this message : "Undefined subroutine &main::SYS_statfs called at Filesys/DiskSpace.pm line XXX" and if you are using a hp9000s700, then edit the syscall.ph file (in the Perl lib tree) and copy the line containing "SYS_statfs {196;}" outside the "if (defined &__hp9000s800)" block (around line 356).
