Hi :)

It's really not a good idea to operate as Root User / Super User for long. It's much much better to run Ubuntu as a normal user and then make occasional use of the "sudo" command when you find a command wont work without it.
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

Otherwise your permissions and things for all kinds of stuff get really messed up. For 1 good reason not to use Root User too much consider the security problems that Windows constantly has to deal with.

For this particular issue about running games under Wine please refer to the Wine forums
http://forum.winehq.org/ and also check their Applications Database to see what methods other people have tried to work-around the problem in a particular game or something.

Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
