Hi Paolo,

In your (GUI) Revolution directory you'll find all the
database drivers for Linux in :
 /components/global
environment/database_drivers/linux/
You'll find the revdb library for Linux here :
 /components/global environment/revdb-Linux

I managed to get it working on Windows by copying the
libraries straight into the same folder as the
cgi-engine.
But I'm sure others can give you advice on where to
place them for Linux.

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.
