I may be wrong about this (haven't tried Kylix with MySQL) but if I remember correctly, Borland choose to link their dbExpress engine for MySQL to an older version of the MySQL client. Mandrake 8.1 probably doesn't include this client, since they generally will ship the later client.
Borland, for some reason, doesn't let you link to any other version other than the one they want you to link with. There has to be a good reason, but I sure don't have any idea what it would be other than they know it works. My suggestion to you would be to go out on the net and find a copy of that version of the lib and install it. That should probably work. You might also have better luck going to the kylix newsgroup at Borland's site. Just lurking there in the past has helped me overcome a few issues.
