You need to say a bit more about your circumstances and goals. 90% of TeX should work well (excepting experimental bits like luatex, xetex, and ConTeXt MKiV which may need some tweaks) on all current platforms, but if you are constrained by site policy to use binary packages provided by your distribution, that is an entirely different problem from whether you can use TeX Live from CTAN. If you rely heavily on .dvi and want a viewer (e.g., kpdf) that is integrated with your desktop, then your options are more limited, but you should think about switching to a PDF workflow (because it is well supported outside the TeX community, there are more and better tools for PDF than for DVI). -- George N.
