well. the reason i couldn’t get it to work is because my lame-ass webserver hosting company doesn’t support it. I use netfirms. which is more embarrssing than anything else. they are pretty cheap, and at first i used them as a free-host. but, then, i needed more space/bandwidth, so i got sucked into $5/month. and then my old blog died. so i got sucked into $10/month in order to have PHP and mySQL. oh well..still pretty cheap. just crappy service. you get what you pay for!
They don’t support mod_rewrite? Buffoons! You might consider throwing a few dollars at TextDrive. I use Pair, which is quite good for most things, but costs a little more.
What was your beef with MT?
MT — the layout and support isn’t as good as WordPress. uploading doesn’t go to a specific directory for images/attachments. And worse, it somehow corrupted my blog database (using the berkeley db instead of mysql…which might have been part of the problem).
I’ve had BDB problems under Mac OS X with Subversion, but none over several years with MT on FreeBSD. SQLite is MT’s recommended backend these days; none of MySQL’s setup and occasional maintenance hassles.
