IIRC MySQL doesn't support transactions via remote connections.  I'm not a 
mysql user so I'm just repeating what I seem to recall someone reporting when 
this bug first came up.

You don't have to have psycopg.  We support all 4 major postgresql python 
drivers.  Popy, psycopg, pygresql, pypgsql.  However the least troublesome of 
the set at the moment are psycopg and IIRC popy.  It's interesting to note 
that all though all 4 of the database drivers follow the dbsig2 spec they all 
interpret it slightly differently :)

Take Care,
