I tried to upgrade my wine to 1.1.0 to see if I can get facegen to work, but using wine 1.1.0, OOTP couldn't get past the spinning ball loading splash screen. It would crash and wine would give some GLX error in the console.

So, I downgraded my wine 0.9.61. I then changed my graphic drivers from the default X11 drivers to the ATI fglrx proprietary drivers. Then I put facegen to troubleshooting mode 2, and now facegen works.

If anyone is having problems with ATI card, maybe you aren't using ATI fglrx proprietary drivers?

Oh yeah, I've noticed OOTP runs at least 2x faster on Linux/Wine than on Windows XP using the exact same hardware. So, linux wins on game performance.
