Hello Chris!
Just in the rare case you did't know it yet,
there's joyent pkgsrc where a hole lot of packages are patched to build
on Illumos derivates.
At least worth to have look at in case of 'problems'.

Greetings,

If you could please have a look at the Trinity DE, too. It's KDE3 indeed.

The sad thing is I can't really get them

Hello!
Please keep in mind, that almost every Linux distro has much more
manpower to maintain those many packages and DEs.
If you volunteer to maintain an other DE for OI i doubt that this would
be a problem for our OI first-level maintainers.

Unfortunately, pkgsrc requires a POSIX shell so dash can't be used. They stated
very clear on system with dash as /bin/sh, the user has to export SH=/bin/bash
in order to have a successful bootstrap. Later the value of sh which is
/bin/bash was carried into mk.conf, too.

I'm posting on MX Linux, not OI. As I said, my stupid BIOS hates OI.
I have tested on two instances.
First, physical machine.
This is when I removed all disks from my system but only keep the OI disk, OI
could boot and functional properly.
Only dual boot triggered the stupid BIOS.
