Many distributions are moving towards enabling Compiz/Beryl/other eye candy by default. The problem is that these programs conflict with Wine over the display driver. Disable these programs before using any Wine applications (especially games, or when noticing weird window problems). Also, disabling the Composite extension in /etc/X11/xorg.conf will most certainly prevent compositing from affecting Wine.
