I use NHibernate 3.1 and I updated to version 3.2. Also I use confOrm 1.0.1.5 and I update to 2.0.0.0vVersion. My version of Firebird NET Provider is 2.7. I do some modifications of my code because confOrm doesn't contain ConfOrm.Mapper anymore. When I try to do a select it returns the following error:
NHibernate.HibernateException : Could not create the driver from NHibernate.Driver.FirebirdClientDriver, NHibernate, Version=3.2.0.4000, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=aa95f207798dfdb4.
----> System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException : Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.
----> System.ArgumentException : Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
I googled your error and came to this thread on Social MSDN. To summarize the solution (scroll down for Barrett's solution), it's likely that something is amiss in your machine.config files. This user reported an extra closing tag in his machine.config, as like so:
<!-- notice the double closing tag -->
<system.data>
<DbProviderFactories>
<add name="Odbc Data Provider" invariant="System.Data.Odbc" ... />
<add name="OleDb Data Provider" invariant="System.Data.OleDb" ... />
<add name="OracleClient Data Provider" invariant="System.Data ... />
<add name="SqlClient Data Provider" invariant="System.Data ... />
<add name="IBM DB2 for i .NET Provider" invariant="IBM.Data ... />
<add name="Microsoft SQL Server Compact Data Provider" ... /></DbProviderFactories>
<DbProviderFactories/>
</system.data>
Btw, I googled for Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed., which is the more interesting part of the reported error. There are more interesting finds, if the above doesn't help.
A little bit further research brought me to this blog post, which explains why this can be a problem in situation where you have multiple dataproviders, and how to solve it. Note: this StackOverflow question is related, as is this one (solution also in machine.config).
