[Qgis-user] mdb and QGIS in Ubuntu 12.04 with UbuntuGis

[Jesús Francisco]

Hello,

I'm working with QGIS 1.7.4[*] in Ubuntu 12.04 installed from the
UbuntuGis repository[1]. Also, i need to work with an .mdb file made
by a colleague with ArcGis.

I seems that QGIS is able to work with .mdb files [2], [3] in Windows.
I don't find the link, but i readed that in Linux it was needed
mdbtools, or and/or LibreOffice Base.

The point is that there is people able to work with QGIS in Ubuntu and
.mdb files, but i can't. What am i missing?

Thank you!
