Howto:
If you're using ATI hardware there may be even worse problems since their drivers suck (for now)

• Use Wine 1.1.5 or newer with MouseWarpOverride=force. The mouse will not work properly in the menu. You will have to navigate with the keyboard after left-clicking once.
  
• Put d3dx9_36.dll and XINPUT1_3.dll in windows/system32. You can get them from a DLL site like dll-files.com
• Install the game and use a Crack on it 
• Set OffscreenRenderingMode=fbo
  
• Set Shaders to High, else you will get graphical problems
• You will get extremely bright HDR. So add r_glow = 0 to My Documents/My Games/Crysis/game.cfg. Remove write-permissions to stop Crysis from butchering the file at every restart
  

Issues:

• FPS are even worse than on Windows (~15 FPS on a 8600GT low settings except shaders). Don't even try to run the game on hardware lower than a GF8 it will not work!
  
• Severe graphical corruption
• Sound may vanish under some circumstances
• Movies don't have sounds at all
  
• Crysis will freeze whenever it feels like it 
• FPS will drop to below 1 at some resolutions
• Also FPS may suddenly drop at any point, usually accompanied by graphical corruption. Restart the game and reload the level to fix this
  
• The patcher will not work in Wine
