The following is an excerp from http://www.winehq.com/Docs/wine-user/configuring.shtml

"GraphicsDriver" = "x11drv|ttydrv"

Sets the graphics driver to use for Wine output. x11drv is for X11 
output, ttydrv is for text console output. WARNING: if you use ttydrv 
here, then you won't be able to run any Windows GUI programs. Thus this 
option is mainly interesting for e.g. embedded use of Wine in web server 
scripts.

All you should have to do is change the ~/.wine/config file so that it 
uses ttydrv
