This is kind of off topic, but do you have a bug link for that X problem?
I first reported it in bug 28646, and was advised it was a "driver" problem. Most programs continued to run (with black icons, etc) but wine release 1.5.4 cannot run any programs (including winecfg) on the Redhat Enterprise 6 based systems. I suspect that is just more special code in WINE that is not supported by the video drivers on various systems.
I also see reports that wine versions 1.5.1 and later is causing problems on the MAC's that have an ATI/AMD GPU. I think that is also related to "drivers".
So I guess it's a hit or miss game to determine what systems WINE will work on now days.
