The following terminal output shows the wine error and that the radeon driver has OpenGL 2.1 support which to my understanding is at least the equivalent of Direct3D 9 (which is all I need). Also, there is a wine popup for every attempt to run a Windows game (none of the games I have work with the radeon driver except Nexuiz which is native and it works at max settings): http://i.imgur.com/120tj.png.

First, you probably should use latest wine 1.3.X
Second, Linux AMD/ATI drivers are not on par (by far) with their
windows counterparts, so you should try to update to the latest driver
for your card.
