Using WebMatrix.Data in Visual Studio with the facebook helpers

Question

I installed the facebook helper package in my Visual Studio 2010 MVC project. Using it currently breaks my site because it can't find the classes it uses from the WebMatrix.Data and WebMatrix.WebData libraries. I can use them in my cs files, but from the facebook.cshtml file they appear to be inaccessible.

Has anybody encountered this? I know this all beta but still.

Thanx Rinze

Copy the dll files to your site bin folder, which are in

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP.NET Web Pages\v1.0\Assemblies
