Arch Linux
wine 1.5.3 ATI (Radeon) drivers, HD 6950 graphics card lib32-mesa 7.11.2-1 (newer versions crash)
Do you also have libtxc_dxtn installed? The screenshot looks like you may be missing s3tc support.
Oh dear God. This looks like a horrendous can of worms. I'm starting by looking at http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/S3TC, and it seems we're looking at patent encumberance. Of course, this report is going to be closed as Invalid.
I genuinely despair at the state of software today.
For what it's worth, I attach a screenshot with lib32-libtxc_dxtn-1.0.1-1 installed, built from AUR (in other words, not maintained in any realistic sense). It's an improvement ... of sorts.
