en: Run "winetricks" at the command line and select "d3dx9" from the dialog. tr: Komut satırından "winetricks"i çalıştırın. Çıkan diyalogdan "d3dx9"u seçin ve yüklenmesini bekleyin. Eğer oyunu kısayolundan açarken hata ile karşılaşırsanız "/home//.wine/drive_c/Program Files/SEGA/Medieval II Total War" klasörüne girip komut satırından "wine ./medieval2.exe" komutunu verin. ".exe" türü dosyaları wine ile ilişkilendirirseniz çift tıklayarak da oyunu açabilirsiniz.

This is a quick step-by-step on how to configure Wine to get Medieval II: Total War running (currently as best possbile). This how-to will be updated to as we make progress in getting the game to work.
This is a general Ubuntu 6.10 How-To, which helped me get this game working (will also help with various other software). I didn't know where to put a general how-to, so I'll put it here for now.
Follow the instructions at http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297280&highlight=open+%2Fdev%2Fsnd%2Fseq+failed to get all the dependencies that you need under Ubuntu. Especially the following helped me get up and running. In particular this fixed audio, and keyboard and mouse input when there is no cursor present:
