Worked fine on Suse Linux 11.3 64bit. Here my test script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Term::ReadKey;
use Time::HiRes qw(time);
ReadMode 3; # 'noecho';
while (1) {
my $key;
my $wait_until = time + 3;
while ( time < $wait_until ) {
$key = ReadKey( -1 );
if ( defined $key ) {
print STDERR "keystroke $key\t";
}
}
print "Something\n";
}
Be prepared to type in perl -e 'use Term::ReadKey; ReadMode 1;' blindly after executing the script to gt a working terminal again ;-)
Maybe some security feature (SELinux or AppArmor) gets in the way on your machine

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
