Are you using some brand of Windows for running this example? The reason I ask is I note the freebsd string in your @INC so I am assuming you are running this on a "IBM" compatible machine with freebsd installed rather than Windows. This module will only work on a windows based OS. If you need a cross platform Window manager perl module, you can try Tk or wxperl(?).
