I am having a problem with duplicate blog post coming back when i run the linq statement below. The issue that a blog post can have the same tag more then once and that's causing the problem. I know when you use criteria you can do the followingcriteria.SetResultTransformer(new DistinctRootEntityResultTransformer()); How can I do the same thing with linq? List<BlogPost> result = (from blogPost in _session.Linq<BlogPost>() from tags in blogPost.Tags where tags.Tag == tag && blogPost.IsPublished && blogPost.Slug != slugToExclude orderby blogPost.DateCreated descending select blogPost).Distinct() .Skip(recordsToSkip).Take(pageSize).ToList();
