Yes, I've used it, although not in all seriousness yet. Been meaning to 
do a Glom on Ubuntu howto, which will get done when I'm using it seriously.

Have you created a Postgre database, as per these instructions?

As regards your query on the forum about importing filemaker databases:
"Glom uses the PostgreSQL (http://www.postgres.org/) database backend 
but it can not edit databases that it did not create, because it uses 
only a simple subset of Postgres functionality."
