Ruben,
Basically you just need an ODBC DriverManager and the MySQL ODBC Driver.
unixODBC is one option ( http://www.unixodbc.org ). I have not tested it
with Aplix but I would be willing to help you out (if I can) if you run into
trouble.
If you are a KDE user then you may be interested in knowing that ODBC is
being dropped into KDE. Expect it in KDE 2.0 (perhaps sooner).
