wine users - Jul 2009 - oblivion: Shivering Isles won't run.

Im running Ubuntu 9.04 and the latest version of WINE.

I can get the game open, It'll load. I'll choose new game. it'll
load. I can watch the intro, but then after the intro, the screen just stays
black and
I'm not quite sure on how to fix that.

any advice?

It sounds likely that something in the game has crashed. Post some terminal
output.
