Like I explained in this thread http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=510 games (and i think other 3D apps too) don't run with "fglrx" driver.
I tried the "radeonhd" driver and games start perfectly, but (obviously they're unusable because the radeonhd driver doesn't have direct rendering implemented yet). I also tried my same Wine installation on a notebook with an nvidia 7000M and it worked! To do so i installed the same Wine version (0.9.60) on the same distro (Gentoo AMD64) and copied my ~/.wine (with games already installed) on the notebook.
Today i tried Wine 0.9.61 but results are the same... I noticed that it happens only with DirectX games, not OpenGL. For example i tried Morrowind, Oblivion, Guild Wars and Nexuiz, but the only one who worked was Nexuiz (even if too slowly).
Here is my configuration:
- Gentoo AMD64
- kernel 2.6.24-gentoo-r5
- ATI Radeon HD 3870 (512MB)
- fglrx 8.473 (Catalyst 8.4)
I'm going to attach some wine/winedbg output. If you need any other info and test reports or if you want me to try patches or anything else, just ask.

I have radeon hd 2600XT and the same trouble with wine + fglrx.
"SIMPLE" "solution"
My card is almost the same as yours and I had the same troubles
My specs are: toshiba satellite A200-1SJ, Radeon HD 2600 - 256MB fresh install of sabayon 3.5 loop3 x86_64 kernel 2.6.25 sabayon X86_64, fglrx ATI 8.6 from 18.June (simple binary install) wine 1.0rc1 and unpatched english oblivion
I did everything that I found about Oblivion under wine (from copying d3dx9*, selecting d3dx9_27 as native in winecfg, changing to my native resolution 1280x800 and disabling virtual desktop in winecfg, regedit ...) and the game never entered the real game after loading.
I did load my old savegame from windows and it works. And I must say that after lowering details it's quite playable and it never crashed (I have tested it only for an hour) I had to lower everything (except resolution) to get rid of those obscure artifacts.
Hope it might help a bit. MartinK
