I use avarice on gentoo linux, and have tried several front ends. ddd dddidn't work so well for me, kdevelop worked pretty well, but had some funny behavior and took some time to set up for each project. kdbg was pretty good also. Now I use emacs for debugging, and have found that it has more features than other debuggers, including AVR Studio. However, it does lack the peripheral register pane that Studio has, which would make it much more useful. You can make macros in the avr-gdb startup script to do things like reset, or anything else you can think up. Hopefully avarice will compile for solaris, or at least be easily portable.
