Hi,
Look at http://www.gdal.org/ogr_formats.html

IIRC ogr2ogr needed that - but ogrinfo?  not sure - maybe the -oo param?

You could also use ogrinfo --formats
to see what's available on your system.

Hopefully others will chip in too.
Regards,
Zoltan

I have a similar issue and supposedly a very simple question:
Given a file Geomedia .mdb file I'm getting a similar error on Windows.
% ogrinfo myfile.mdb -al -so
How does OGR recognize if it's a Personal Geodatabase or a Geomedia file?

Hi All,

I am trying to find a way to list the data type of each field in all tables
in a GeoMedia MDB databse.

I tried ogrinfo mdbname and got:  ERROR 1: PGeo: MDB Tools driver not found!

so, sudo apt-get install mdbtools, and tried again and got same error.

so, sudo apt-get install gdal-bin and that gave me a newer version than that
I did have.
Interestingly apt-get returned:    Setting up gdal-bin (1.9.0-1~exp5~lucid4)
...... etc etc
but afterwards:  ogrinfo --version still returns GDAL 1.8.1, released
2011/07/09

As you are on Linux, you should avoid the rely on ODBC, and use the
Geomedia driver [1], only available from gdal 1.9.
I would test it for you, but I have no Geomedia sample data for testing
