What works
Pretty much everything in game. No problems in space or instances (which were crashing with previous Wine+SWG configurations on my PC). Alt-Tabbing works.
What does not
Mouse cursor is buggy. Shows the SWG cursor AND mouse cursor from X11 at the same time. Most of the time the embedded HTML-pages(news,EULA...) in Station LaunchPad don't show. Couple of smaller annoyances, such as the display gamma setting will not restore back to the desktop setting when quitting the game (need to reset it with "nvidia-settings" or such a tool).
Workarounds
What was not tested
The "bloom" graphic effect was not tested as it requires newer video card (I am using GeForce 6600).
