I am using wine 1.1.10 in Fedora 10.

I have managed to install Office 2003 and get word to work.... 
I did try to execute the equation editor directly from a terminal shell using:
wine .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Common\ Files/Microsoft\
Shared/EQUATION/EQNEDT32.EXE

This does indeed open the equation editor in a window but of course the symbol
font is missing.... so you can't generate an equation but at least the
executable needed is present which is a first step.

So maybe this is a clue that there needs to be a hook into this executable from
within WORD that is missing? Does this help?
