I had problems with this in Ubuntu 7.10 with Wine (all versions).  Sometimes I
could get it working, but it seemed flaky at best.  I upgraded today to Ubuntu
8.04 and ensured that Wine was at the latest version (actually I uninstalled
and then reinstalled it).  I have had no problems with it since the upgrade. 
Previously, to even see my list I used to have to open the friends list, change
my status to online, then close and reopen the friends list.  Now when I change
my status, the update appears a second or two later in the window.  I can also
chat, and it appears to be working for me.  Unfortunately, the shift+tab
functionality during a game still does not appear to work.

If we are unsure if this a networking issue or not, it may be useful to get
some netstat output.  If someone out there could open Steam friends (maybe even
open a chat window to someone too) and immediately take a netstat dump (for
example: netstat -na > before_working.txt) then chant some incantations and
play with it until it starts working.  Once you are sending and receiving
messages take another netstat snapshot (netstat -na > after_working.txt). 
Someone could then compare to see if there are any glaring differences.  Not
sure if it is overkill, but using "netstat -nap" might be even more useful
since it will show the program name.
