The selection of software for Solaris is pretty limited in any case; you'll probably wind up needing to build half of anything anyway. SunFreeware used to have packages for older versions, but they've gone to a pay-for-freeware model :/ The mirror that I can find doesn't have anything for 8 or 9, just 10. OpenCSW still supports 9, I think, but their focus is on 10.

Thanks for the input!
