Unsolved 2D views not rendering properly on Linux

I'm trying to get Hammer to run on Linux through Wine, but while it seems to be for the most part working (at least so far) the 2D viewports aren't working properly. Sometimes they render as expected, sometimes they display garbled portions of my screen or the currently selected texture. What's going wrong here and how can I fix it?

Installing Hammer++ didn't change anything. The 2D viewports are acting exactly the same as they did with regular Hammer. The only immediately visible difference is is the 2D skybox being visible in the 3D viewport like it normally is in Hammer++.

Yeah tldr; hammer on Linux is fucked. Either run it in a VM, or try rathammer
