yes, you should remove the rpm you installed
type "rpm --erase packagename" the packagename is probably "wine" or 
something

then to install the tar source,
untar it, and cd into the directory it created.
type "./configure --enable-opengl"

after this point, what i did was run "./tools/wineinstall" which builds and 
installs and does everything.
alternatively, you can run "make" then "make install"

after youve done that, edit the ~/.wine/config file so all the settings are 
good for your system. in particular, you might want to set the 
desktop_double_buffered option to "Y".

then run "wine program.exe" and you should have a working program with 
opengl support.

if not, ask someone who knows more than me =)
