</div>OpenGL is OpenGL no matter who implemented it. It will be supported. What exactly will be available depends on HW & driver.<br>

</div>Wrong. Wine support PS & VS with any card providing ARB/GLSL. And Wine currently desn't use OGL 3.<br>
<br>
Wine has 2 shader backends GLSL and ARB. These _are_ the shader implementations. There is nothing to emulate. ARB supports up to 1.4 shaders. So if GLSL available Wine prefers that instead. GLSL supports shaders all the way to 4.0<br>
<br>
Wine will not do any sort of shader emulations if they are not supported by the hardware / driver.<br>
