All of these are available via yum install and most are cross platform:
tinyerp (i think after install, it shows up as OpenERP)
eGroupWare (has hosted/paid for versions that may do more)
Adempiere version of compiere

Note, SourceForge's search is even more broken than it used to be.
Querying for adempier resulted in zero matches, but append the e on
the end and there are tons of adempiere related projects.

ZK related project is pretty cool and not only cross platform but also
supports mobile devices.  Has a rich user interface without the
dangers of javascript.

Alfresco probably integrates with ERP and CRM.

FCKeditor was originally named after the initials of its Brazilian creator.

This guy has experience with integrating into different CRM ERP systems.

Depending on your needs, any ERP can be overwhelming.  There are so
many alternatives, it is hard to choose.
