I use wine from www.codeweavers.com. Download RPM and follow setup routine. I am currently running SuSE 7.3. AmiBroker runs quite well. Some minor graphic glitches using multiple windows (as when running Analysis -> Backtest. The underlying chart sometimes "bleeds" through the backtest results.)
If you need any more information I can try to help, but I am far from being any kind of expert with this.
