Ok, at least I can relate to you know (GeForce 8500 GT).

Where going to try a work-around now with patches.. I, myself - hate compiling 
(I'm very impatient and hate having to re-compile on new versions), though you
can give it a shot.

Heres some copy+paste: ..

The patches are sure, http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=20483 and
http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=20484, apply in that order.

First you need to know how to do basic stuff in the console. At first,
uninstall whatever version of wine you're having, then download the source code
version of wine found somewhere on the mainpage of winehq. (The patch is for
version 1.1.19 AFAIK but will work fine with wine-1.1.21)

Before you start.. run:
sudo apt-get build-dep wine wine-dev

so your not missing any files..

then you need to do the following:

1. unpack the sourcecode you just downloaded.

2. download the two patches with right click, save as and save them into the
directory where you unpacked the source

3. change to the directory in whatever terminal program you're using and type
(in that order):

patch -p1 < 0001*.patch
patch -p1 < 0002*.patch
./configure && make depend && make


--- END COPY+PASTE ---

If your on 64bit, read some of this: http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit
