anyway probably not a good idea : what do you expect if you have two posts with the same title ? It’s pretty expected to happen sooner or later…

that’s weird — I use %postname% for my permalinks and it works fine… what WP version are you using?
I use WP1.2 and my .htaccess is
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteRule ^category/(.*)/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?category_name=$1&feed=$2 [QSA]
RewriteRule ^category/?(.*) /blog/index.php?category_name=$1 [QSA]
RewriteRule ^author/(.*)/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?author_name=$1&feed=$2 [QSA]
RewriteRule ^author/?(.*) /blog/index.php?author_name=$1 [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-z-]+)/?([0-9]+)?/?$ /blog/index.php?name=$1&page=$2 [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-z-]+)/?/(feed|rdf|rss|rss2|atom)/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?name=$1&feed=$2 [QSA]
RewriteRule ^([_0-9a-z-]+)/?/trackback/?$ /blog/wp-trackback.php?name=$1 [QSA]
RewriteRule ^feed/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?feed=$1 [QSA]
RewriteRule ^comments/feed/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?$ /blog/wp-feed.php?feed=$1&withcomments=1 [QSA]
I too tried to use %postname% as the permalink…. and it worked quite well, but the archives got toasted, so I *had* to go back to %year%/%monthnum%/%postname%
BTW: %year%-%monthnum% doesn’t work either…..
