I don't have sixpair on my system, so what I did was simply replace the line:
my @sixpair = qw(sixpair >tmp1);
with
my @sixpair = qw(lsusb >tmp1);
to see what would happen. The window successfully got the output of the lsusb cmd.
I would check to see if your 'sixpair' system cmd is actually being called. I suspect it is failing, with the
failure going to the terminal and never getting to your tmp1 file.
That is what is happening to me anyway.
Hope that is helpful...

I wonder if it is possible that sixad is not using stdout?
Have you tried using the redirect "&2>1" instead of just ">"?
Sort of a shot in the dark, but that is the only thing I can think of unless sixad is simply
puking without any output at all...
Redirect shortcuts
Best of luck...
Update:Should have gone to the main posting...then I would have seen that you are already successful... Glad you got it working!

Yeah that's exactly what I found out last night. I replaced the sixad --start command with ls and the program worked. I even tried ls --help to see if it was the switches i was using with sixad but that's not the case. For some reason sixad --start is not running. Why I have no freaking clue. Thank you. | [reply] |
