[Gvsig_english] unknow geometry type with mygis

[Javier Galán]

Is the same for me, but if if were a line shape gvSIG draws lines, 
although after specify the geometry field it continue saying  [unknown].

Did you try to connect with the postgis driver (you should need a 
postgis DB)?

I hope it could be helpful

regards
