Need Help installing DBD-Mysql on SGI-Xinet WebVenture and Full Press

Hi,
We have an SGI with irix 6.5.21, running Xinet Full Press with Webventure. The Database is pre-installed MySql. They state is a special version, but I believe it is just a licensed version.

I have full access to Mysql, but I want to make alterations to the database through perl, I installed the DBI, but now I'm having issues with the DBD-Mysql. When I try and Makefile.PL I get an error about mysql headers.
# perl Makefile.PL
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 174.
readline() on closed filehandle PIPE at Makefile.PL line 176.
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 174.
readline() on closed filehandle PIPE at Makefile.PL line 176.
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 174.
readline() on closed filehandle PIPE at Makefile.PL line 176.
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 174.
readline() on closed filehandle PIPE at Makefile.PL line 176.
Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 174.
readline() on closed filehandle PIPE at Makefile.PL line 176.
Failed to determine directory of mysql.h. Use

perl Makefile.PL --cflags=-I<dir>

to set this directory. For details see the INSTALL.html file,
section "C Compiler flags" or type

perl Makefile.PL --help

It appears that there are no source file for this version of mysql, is there anyway of getting the database driver installed for the DBI.

I have the DBD-Mysql, installed on both a Suse Linux box and an OSX box, anyway I could copy the needed modules, if so where would I place them

Thanks in advance

Dean
