I sure hope that's your signature. :-)

Not to be snide or anything, but I've used Blastwave ( http://www.blastwave.org/ ) ever since I couldn't find a number of things on SFW, and I haven't really gone back since.  I did have a problem with xmms from the "unstable" tree not being able to play OGG files with the vorbis library that came in the unstable tree, but trying again with the stable tree fixed that.

The other nag is having to add another directory to your path ( /opt/csw/bin ), but once that's taken care of, it's rather good.
