Not really. I only use ActiveState Perl in Win32 environments. In *nix environments the ActiveState version isn't that compatible. You could check to see if anyone else has created a PPM for DBD::myql. You might try searching Google. Also, I've heard that ActiveState is pretty good about requests for PPMing modules.
Any particular reason why you're using ActivePerl on Linux?
