Thanks, that says version is 1.5.4. I guess an upgrade might do the trick.
However, as I am very green in Linux, I have yet to compile my first source and
would appreciate any simpler way, i.e. pre-compiled binaries. Is there any such
way, or any good reference for learning necessary basics regarding compilation?

Use gdal_translate --version
Since you told me that you are using GDAL version 1.5.0 from December 2007, I
suggest that you upgrade to GDAL 1.7.0 from January 2010. Greg

I am trying to learn how to use ogr2ogr to convert a shapefile to kml, but fail
to do so and cannot understand whether I am at all on the right track or
completely lost (very much beginner in GIS). I would like to convert either, or
all, of the files on
<http://www.nationalgrid.com/uk/LandandDevelopment/DDC/GasElectricNW/undergroundcables/shape/>
to .kml and try using
>ogr2ogr -f "KML" LINE.kml LINE.shp
but get a buffer overflow (I can send a backtrace if this would help):
>*** buffer overflow detected ***: ogr2ogr terminated
(btw, I am using Ubuntu 9.10)
Apologies if this is the wrong forum or totally basic, but after many
frustrations I am getting desperate and, please, please, guide me in the right
direction...
Thanks!
