Which kernel are you running?  I have found that the 2.6.5 kernels are having 
problems, at least up to the .322 kernel.  I am updating to the .326 kernel 
now; we'll see how it goes.  With the 2.6.3 kernel that T2 originally had, I 
can run most everything under cxoffice.  Editing /etc/sysconfig/prelink and 
turnig prelink off is essential, and SELinux and wine aren't currently 
getting along (I have SELinux off).  With the .309 2.6.5 kernel, cxoffice 
would start up the programs, but they would crash out rapidly.  With the .315 
2.6.5 kernel, my laptop simply didn't work.  With the .322 2.6.5 kernel, 
Excel at least will run well; I installed all of that under the 2.6.3 T2 
release kernel.  I have not tried Quicken 2004, but I have installed lots of 
oddball packages, including Appleworks 5, Lotus Wordpro 9.8, and Visio 
Professional 5.0.
