Here's what I used:

(odbc.ini)
[MythConverg]
Driver = /usr/lib/libmyodbc3.so
Server = localhost
Port = 3306
Database = mythconverg

(odbcinst.ini)
[MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver]
DRIVER          = /usr/lib/libmyodbc3.so
SETUP           = /usr/lib/libmyodbc3S.so
UsageCount              = 1


The latter entry in /etc/odbcinst.ini was added when I installed the odbc
connector -- and btw, I'm running the i386 version of ooffice/connector/etc, since the
x86_64 version dies miserably...

Woo hoo!  Thanks! :)
