Since these are Java errors, and Wine does not use Java code, it appears that the program ran into an unsupported function call that is not implemented in Wine.  The immediate feeling is to install DirectX 8, which I recommended against.  What I do recommend is filing a bug report at Wine's Bugzilla with all of these details.  It may be that an unimplemented OpenGL function may be causing this as well but until someone with Linux runs this program, we cannot rule out a Wine bug.
