I use FC1. Oh, just now I found on CPAN a driver called Bundle::DBD::InterBase and used it with:
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::DBD::InterBase' IT WORKED! I guess that, if this worked out, my Firebird installation was OK. But I still don't understand where was the problem... And I hate that.

I am trying to get my Debian servers setup with 1.5.0 SS, but have not had time to finish testing it out so I can't say I have perl 5.8.3 and 1.5.0 SS working together (yet). So I don't think its a perl 5.8.0 versus 5.8.3 issue - I'd pick the lastest stable version of perl - 5.8.4 (i think). I think its most important to compile from scratch rather than using any specific version of perl. I would also make sure your Firebird installation is kosher and that isql works properly from the command line, etc ... You don't say whether you are running FC1 or FC2. I have not tried FC2. There is a difference in libs, etc. FC2 is pretty new - keep that in mind.
