It can be done but you need proper emulators for the DirectX and the graphics.

Here are the relevant threads http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...ighlight=linux and http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...highlight=Unix

It works. A bit slower than usual, and a bit tricky to get running, but it works.

When in doubt, consult the wine appdb.

A friend of mine just bought SH3 and was frustrated when trying to update to 1.4b. Seems he kept getting a message which sounds very much like the one you're getting. He got his from the same retailer I bought my copy from and mine was already v1.4 out of the box. He checked his and found he could not update because his was already v1.4 too. Might be worth checking.
