i have no direct experience with DBI and mysql, but i'm using quite
extensively DBI with DB2 and ODBC.
did you test your installation? how did you get it? was it a .deb or just a
tarball?
if it was a tarball, 99% you have to compile and install it before you can
use it.
and it's good to test it before going on developing.

what is exactly that doesn't work? can you provide some code and error msg?
