but I always had acceleration anyway – don't depend on this too much.

What card do you have?

Generally, if DirectRendering is YES that means that you have acceleration.
Older Cedega may fail to work on never Geforce cards (or rather newer
drivers) but this is not directly related to direct rendering (and there is
simple workaround for this).

If OpenGl works in Linux it will work in wine – how good will it work is a
different matter ;]

For example, I have tested older cards like Voodoo3 – and I was only able to
play OpenGL based games – in DX games there were many, many errors and wine
often crashed. Of course if you have Radeon or GeForce it should work just
fine (well... with Radeon pixel shaders may still be messy but other then
that...)

P.S

You still didn't posted console output...
