Mysql.Data.CF version 6.0.4
Mysql.Data.Entity version 6.0.4
Mysql.web version 6.0.4
Im runnig on Visual Studio 2008 Visual Basic 9.0.30729.1 SP

I STILL CANNOT see datasources when I drop a webreport on my default.aspx, when I select the datasource pin on the right side of the report, nothing appears...

You probably misunderstood something.
How to use some datasource in a report?
1. You may use application-defined datasource. In your case, you put a datasource on your web form (something like standard SqlDataSource, i think there is an equivalent in MySql). Then, you put a WebReport and click its "Select Data Source" smart tag item (probably the better name for this item is "Select APPLICATION Data Source"). This process described well in the developer's manual, "Working with ASP.NET" chapter.
2. Your report may have own, integrated datasources. In this case it does not depend on application. For this purpose we have a set of standard (built-in) datasources like MsSql, MsAccess, Xml, OleDb, and separate set of add-ins (like FastReport.MySql which you are trying to set up). You may create a new datasource in the designer's "Data/Add Data Source..." menu.
Im doing excatly that, sqldatasource or objectDS doesnt appear in te little window of the fastreport datasource selector.
Im trying another thing, this is suppoused to be easy, or at less easier than other softs, could be the 64bits plataform?
Thanx in advanced.
I'm not sure about 64 bits, there is no such PC here to test it now. The standard SqlDataSource works well on my PC.
