Ok, I was able to get gacutil to work and I can see FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient in the Assembly folder and also when I use the /L switch in gacutil. I can also connect to a Firebird database in VS2008.
 
What I am unable to do is access the assembly in my code. When I include the following line:
 
using Firebird.Data.FirebirdClient;
 
I get an error telling me: "The type or namespace name 'Firebirdsql' could not be found." Also when I try to add it as a Reference, it is not in the list.
 
Trying to add the reference: did you only look into the list in the .NET tab? That list doesn't contain everything in the GAC. You can find the reference using the second tab from the right - I don't know the caption in an english Windows / Visual Studio version, should be something like "search". That opens a file dialog, and the assembly should be in \Windows\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL. At least, there it is in my Windows 7.
