-Looking for a good financial tracking software. I wiped my box and installed mandrake 8.0, (So now I have an amd 1gig 256 mg 133 ram, raedon 32 mg ddr screamer wholly devoted to Linux) so quicken is out of the question.

Thanks in advance. :)

Actually, Quicken99 will install in WINE and is functional. There a few display issues, but that shouldn't be a problem.

However GNUCash is pretty good. theKompany (http://www.thekompany.com) also has a finance manger that is built on qt. The screen shots look nice.

GNUcash is OK but it still needs some work... it's definately not Quicken or MS Money. And last time I tried it I wasn't able to balance anything because I imported a quicken file into it, and even though I started at $350 or whatever it was, the program kept insisting I started at $0 and wanted to balance from that.
There was another Java-based one call MoneyDance I think that looked really good too, but I was never able to get it to run.
