Okay, simply, you can't.  AFAIK, wine does not load native windows VXD's
and I don't think anyone is planing to make it do so.
Wine will load builtin VXD's where someone has taken the trouble to
figure out what the particular VXD does and implement that function
using *nix function calls, but to just load any old windows code and
turn it loose with the power to wreck your system, I don't think we want
to do that.

Wine is not windows, and it aint win4lin either.
