(

  f_table_schema character varying(256) NOT NULL,
  f_table_name character varying(256) NOT NULL,

  CONSTRAINT geometry_columns_pk PRIMARY KEY (f_table_catalog, f_table_schema, f_table_name, f_geometry_column)
)
WITH (

);

For tables only, a simple 
SELECT DISTINCT f_table_schema, f_table_name FROM geometry_columns;
should do the trick.
