I'm supposing that the problem is in the graphics driver (X) of
the graphics hardware you have in your T30.

If you run the program via ssh, the hardware actually drawing things
is the remote machine (not the T30), so it works.

My guess is an issue with the specific hardware+driver on the T30.
Maybe the driver used on the T30 has a bug.

I don't see an easy solution for this.
You should try to change things, hoping to move the waters enough
to sidestep the problem.
Is the T30 updated (last rpms of wine, X and everything else)?
What driver is X using? (it prints a lot of stuff in /var/log/Xorg.0.log)
Maybe switching to another driver can be useful, at least as a test.

Another idea: you can ssh into yourself, you know? Try that and see what
happens.
