--- Comment #3 from Anonymous williammpratt81@gmail.com --- Version 7.8 also doesn't work.
Version 6.01 requires a working configuration of OpenGL, which appears to depend on some specific versions of system components, which a Linux distribution probably needs to manage.
This dependency on particular system component versions (possibly versions of Xorg/drivers) and a failure to report on these flaws is also a problem in wine. A generic message saying that OpenGL failed to initialize is just a worthless way of informing a user. If glxgears works, then wine should also be able to initialize OpenGL.
