What type of videocard and which drivers are you using? I guess you are using a
non-Nvidia card e.g. an ATI card or something else. The problem is that
rendering a small '3d view' (a child window) is not trivial for Wine. It took
years to fit it in the current wine driver model. In short we render to a
window which we make 'offscreen' using the X Composite extension and then we
copy the contents to the real window. Only Nvidia and very recent Intel drivers
support it well right now. Other drivers still need to do some catching up in
this area. They will as this functionality is also needed for compiz-like
effects (especially glxgears on a side of a cube).

If this is the case then the issue is a driver bug as I have the app working
fine on my Nvidia card.
