wine users - Jun 2009 - A resource for which things I need on Wine to run games?

I was wondering if people have ideas as to what the best place is to find out
what I need to run games using Wine (not terribly specific, I play a lot of old
and new games and just want some kind of link that is helpful).  If there are
particular dlls/utilities that are required for a lot of games it would be nice
to know about those.

Wine itself, a good (nvidia) graphics card and up to date drivers.

That's never worked for me, for one thing I don't have and can't get
(since this is a laptop) an nvidia card.  My intel card worked fine on windows
before it sputtered and died.  On Wine I can't even run the majority of old
games, let alone new ones...

And naturally there is no workaround for that... ?

other then that - wait for new drivers release.
