[Mono-aspnet-list] Linq libraries missing?

[Mark DevGood]

Very many thanks for you help...this has been very useful so far. gacutil2 is
a new command which I am glad you showed me. 

I just wanted to correct a little assumption first and that is at no point
did I explicitly say that any System.Linq assembly exists. These references
are added in the standard template used by Visual Studio as 'using'
statements. 

In the top of one of my .cs files is:
using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Xml.Linq;
<snip>

When I compile I get:
The type or namespace name `Linq' does not exist in the namespace `System'.
Are you missing an assembly reference?
The type or namespace name `System.Linq' could not be found. Are you missing
a using directive or an assembly reference?
The type or namespace name `Linq' does not exist in the namespace
`System.Xml'. Are you missing an assembly reference?
The type or namespace name `Xml.Linq' could not be found. Are you missing a
using directive or an assembly reference?

On my local system I can confirm using 'gacutil2 -l System.Linq': No files
exist
On my local system I can confirm using 'gacutil2 -l System.Xml.Linq': The
response is: 
The following assemblies are installed into the GAC:
System.Xml.Linq, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089

So lets hope the System.Xml.Linq library includes the System.Linq namespace
too!
The problem is the server (of which I am not an administrator because its
hosted) does not recognize the command 'gacutil2'. But I guess probably
there is no System.Xml.Linq there. So any clues how I can add it? Or even
better, since i don't have full control over the server, is it possible for
me to extract it to a dll somehow and include in in the bin folder of my
application?

Many thanks
